Chicago Tribune names interim publisher

The Chicago Tribune is reporting that it has named an executive as interim publisher to replace the retiring Scott C. Smith.

CHICAGO —

The Chicago Tribune is reporting that it has named an executive as interim publisher to replace the retiring Scott C. Smith.

The paper reported Friday on its Web site that publishing group executive vice president Bob Gremillion will oversee the newspaper beginning Monday.

Gremillion has been publisher of the Tribune Company's South Florida Sun-Sentinel newspaper and the chief executive officer of the Sun-Sentinel Company in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He also is a former broadcast executive.

Smith announced his retirement June 12 as a management team led by Chief Executive Sam Zell pushed ahead with sweeping changes at the media conglomerate.

Two papers owned by Tribune Company, The Hartford Courant in Connecticut and Baltimore's Sun, announced staff cuts this week, and the paper said papers owned by Tribune "are expected to follow suit this summer."
