Tribune Co. redraws newspaper management chart

TRIBUNE CO REDRAWS NEWSPAPER MANAGEMENT CHART
[SOURCE: Crain's Chicago Business]
As it prepares to go private, Tribune Co. redrew its newspaper organization chart Tuesday so more executives report directly to CEO Dennis FitzSimons. Los Angeles Times Publisher David Hiller and Robert Gremillion, who now oversees four newspapers, report to Mr. FitzSimons. Mr. Gremillion, who has been publisher of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, becomes executive vice president in charge of the Fort Lauderdale-based paper, the Baltimore Sun, Hartford Courant and Orlando Sentinel. Both men previously reported to Tribune Publishing President Scott Smith, who also has been publisher of the Chicago Tribune since last fall. The number of papers under Mr. Smith’s direct supervision will fall from five to two: the Chicago Tribune and Newsday in New York. He’ll also continue to run Tribune’s syndication and national ad sales units.
