Leaving The Locker Room -- ARMEN KETEYIAN

(From The Philadelphia Inquirer -- By Gail Shister)

Ace journalist ARMEN KETEYIAN will join CBS NEWS as chief investigative correspondent, the network announced yesterday. He starts March 6th.

Keteyian, formerly a reporter for both BRYANT GUMBEL'S
HBO REAL SPORTS
and CBS SPORTS for eight years, will head a new unit that includes at least five producers, he says.

"I took a long, hard look at leaving Real Sports," he says.
"To lead this unit for a network like CBS is the pinnacle of the profession. It's a big landscape and a big new challenge."

Keteyian had no trouble being released from his new three-year contract with CBS Sports. SEAN McMANUS runs both the sports and news divisions.
