Recycler Newspaper

Los Angeles Times Media Group said Wednesday that it had sold Recycler Classifieds, publisher of four advertising circulars, to Target Media Partners. Recycler Classifieds also publishes 11 weekly and biweekly photo ad and employment guides in Southern California and runs the Recycler.com website, said the company, which is owned by Tribune Co. Terms weren't disclosed. The sale comes as investors led by real estate billionaire Sam Zell work to complete the $8.

Times Mirror Co. on Friday said it agreed to buy the Southern California editions of the Recycler Classifieds, an independent publisher of classified advertising, and become part of a team that would own and operate the remaining Recycler publications.
