New York papers file merger notice with Justice Department
Three New York newspapers the Herald Tribune World Telegram and Sun and the Journal American inform the Justice Department of a planned merger. Officials say the merger would replace the World Telegram and Sun with a single afternoon World Journal and Tribune while keeping the Herald Tribune as the morning paper. The Sunday editions would combine into a single paper. The papers cite losses as the motive and await DOJ review which could block or allow the merger. Turner cautions money loss alone may not justify a sale to a competitor.
