Tribune Publishing: We’re Not in Talks to Sell Company

Chicago Tribune: Seeking to quash speculation, Tribune Publishing sent a message to employees denying reports that the company was about to be bought and the Los Angeles Times spun off. Reports of a pending sale were fueled by a tweet Friday from Rupert Murdoch. Tribune’s statement, which was also filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, said the Chicago-based newspaper company has not entertained offers to sell its assets.
