David Hiller Visits Olympic Facility

David Hiller, publisher of the Los Angeles Times, will pay a visit to our facility this afternoon to give us a clue as to what will be occurring when the Tribune Company sale is completed next week. It could also be a farewell from David as the company transitions from a public company to a private entity. Here’s what David sent out a few days ago.


Folks –

With the FCC action approving our waivers last week, it now looks like we’ll have our transaction completed before the holidays. As I mentioned on my blog yesterday, I visited Sam Zell over the weekend, and it’s fair to say he’s pumped up about the future. For a little more on my conversation with Sam, see my PubBlog (I need the page views J).

As we get ready for this new chapter, I’d like to get together with you all to discuss what the transaction means to us, and the plans we’ll be talking about with Sam.

We will hold 4 all-employee town hall meetings at the following locations, so please mark your calendars and plan to attend the one most convenient for you. We will have plenty of time for Q&A. Also, we’ll have some refreshments and a chance to visit following each one.
