Tribune Co. Is Said to Aim to Sell All Newspapers in Single Deal

Tribune Co., the media company that entered discussions to sell its newspapers earlier this year, is seeking a single buyer for all of the publications, said two people with knowledge of the process.

Tribune, which emerged from bankruptcy at the end of 2012, owns the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune and six other daily papers. While the bidding is still in the early stages, the company is seeking acquirers who are willing to purchase the newspaper chain together, said the people, who asked not to be named because the talks are private.
