Today was supposed to be an important day in the effort by Gannett to buy the former Tribune Publishing(now Tronc), but Ken Doctor of Politico – who has owned the story over the last several weeks – is reporting the whole thing is on hold.
This is crucial information for our friends at the Hartford Courant – a Tronc owned property.
According to Politico, a Tronc board meeting was abruptly cancelled Wednesday afternoon because a few important details of the Gannett deal have yet to be worked out.
