TRIBUNE COMPANY A case study in media ownership
TRIBUNE CO. HOLDINGS • 10 newspapers • Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, Hartford Courant, Orlando Sentinel, South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Baltimore Sun • 23 TV stations (reach 80% of Americans) • WGN – Chicago radio station • Chicago Cubs
TRIBUNE IN LOS ANGELES • Los Angeles Times • KTLA television station • 18 community newspapers
SYNERGY • L.A. Times uses KTLA video on its web site • KTLA uses information from LAT reporters for their news reports.
Critics argue that this sort of synergy limits the variety of information that consumers receive.
