Sarah Ellison reports Sam Zell's proposal is structured in a way that would take time to implement, a strike against it for Tribune executives. She writes: "The board's preferred plan continues to be a recapitalization involving a spinoff of Tribune's TV stations and the payment of a big dividend to shareholders.
