Buy a paper?The going bid for the LA Times and other media outlets owned by The Tribune Company is $34/share, as offered by Los Angeles billionaires Ron Burkle and Eli Broad, which swooped in front of Sam Zell’s $33/share offer.

NY Senator Hillary Clinton is the leader in the first round of fund raising by those who would be king—or queen—notching $36-million for her war chest…including a $10-million transfer from her senate campaign funds.
