The Tribune Company owns the Chicago Cubs and has acknowledged the speculation that has swirled for months about the Cubs potentially being for sale. Gary Weitman, a Tribune spokesman was quoted recently (March 18, 2006) in a Chicago Tribune report saying:
“The Cubs are not for sale.”
However, I have found some contradictory opinions in these posts on CubsNet.com and 1060west.

I can’t see it happening. The Cubs are a great TV property for WGN and Comcast SportsNet. Broadcasting is actually more important to Tribune’s bottom line than its newspaper business.
