Los Angeles Times | New York Times
Ron Burkle,
Peter Ueberroth, and
Eli Broad have said they'd like to buy the Los Angeles Times or see it in local hands, reports
Joseph Menn. Publisher
Jeff Johnson says the paper isn't for sale, but analyst
John Morton tells Menn: "One has to assume that something is going to happen to [LAT owner] Tribune. Once that virus of a major change in the company gets established -- and it's certainly been established in Tribune -- it's very hard to get rid of it." ||
