Tribune Co. has agreed to sell its two smallest newspapers, both in Connecticut, to Gannett for more than $65 million, as the media giant edges closer to accepting or rejecting bids for the entire company.
Tribune said in September that it planned to sell $500 million in assets. As part of the sale, Tribune offered the Greenwich Time and Stamford Advocate to two prospective buyers, McLean-based Gannett and MediaNews Group of Denver, according to a source familiar with the sale who spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal has not been announced.
