U-T Buys North County Times and Californian

Posted: 9/10/2012  |  By: San Diego Business Journal

Douglas F. Manchester and the San Diego Union-Tribune have purchased the North County Times and Daily Californian. The sale comes less than a year after Manchester acquired the Union-Tribune and renamed it U-T San Diego, and just months after Manchester lost out in the bidding for the Orange County Register.

U-T CEO John Lynch said nothing has been signed yet.
