Los Angeles Times
Harry B. Chandler likes the ownership model used by the Green Bay Packers. "If 20% of Times readers invest $1,000, it could work," says the great-great-grandson of the Los Angeles Times' founder. "I'll write the first check for the Los Angeles Times Community Owners LLC." More from Chandler:
* "We all should be worried about the possibility of a sale to an even more profit-squeezing new owner, or some ego-driven entrepreneur with an agenda."
* "How can The Times recover? To offset declining revenues, it needs to reduce expenses with the least effect on its editorial mission. One idea is an a la carte newspaper -- one that delivers stock tables, sports sections or comics only to the subscribers who want them." || Related from
