Los Angeles Times
Tribune isn't likely to sell the Los Angeles Times or Chicago Tribune, media observers tell
James Rainey and
Meg James. A more probable scenario would be the sale of three smaller papers in Connecticut -- the Hartford Courant, the Stamford Advocate and Greenwich Time -- and the Allentown Morning Call. The Newhouse family's Advance Publications, which owns a newspaper in Easton, Pa., might take an interest in the Morning Call, says analyst
John Morton. Journal-Register already owns several papers in Connecticut and could bid on Tribune's holdings in that state, says Morton.
