Tribune Co. Spent $3 Million In Legal Fees Before Bankruptcy Filing
Chicago Tribune:
Before Tribune Co. sought bankruptcy protection on Dec. 8, the Chicago-based media company and Chicago Tribune owner had spent nearly $3 million for legal work related to managing and restructuring its massive debt.
Those efforts began as early as March, three months after Chicago real estate investor Sam Zell completed a deal to take Tribune Co. private in a leveraged buyout, according to court documents filed Dec. 26 by Sidley Austin, Tribune Co.'s bankruptcy counsel.
