Los Angeles Business Journal: A Tribune Publishing analyst has blasted the newspaper conglomerate in a memo, saying it bungled the firing of Los Angeles Times publisher Austin Beutner and called on the company to sell itself to Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway before its valuation dips any lower. “We have slowly begun to doubt the capabilities of management to circumvent the declining investor sentiment, and their ability to profitably manage a newspaper company for the long haul,” said the note from Hamed Khorsand of BWS Financial.
