"This was not my first exposure to a family-owned media business. I owned a small media company headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, in the 1970s. And in 1986, I pursued an investment in the Pulitzer Publishing Company, a very successful family-owned and -operated business. The deal was brought to me by Felix Rohatyn, a partner in the investment firm Lazard Freres. Flush with cash from the divest¬ ment of the Irvine Ranch and a major investment in the Taubman Company portfolio by the General Motors Pension Trust, I asked Felix to keep his eyes open for promising opportunities."
