    MEDIA BUREAU ANNOUNCES FILING OF APPLICATIONS FOR CONSENT TO
ASSIGNMENT OF BROADCAST STATION LICENSES BY TRIBUNE AND ITS SUBSIDIARY
COMPANIES AND PERMIT-BUT-DISCLOSE EX PARTE STATUS FOR THE PROCEEDING
                          MB Docket No. 10-104

On April 28, 2010, the Tribune Company and its Licensee Subsidiaries (“Tribune”) filed sixteen (16)
Applications for Consent to Assignment of Broadcast Station License (FCC Form 314), pursuant to
Section 73.3540 of the Commission’s Rules, jointly with applications seeking consent to assign certain
broadcast auxiliary, satellite earth station, private land mobile, private fixed microwave, and CARS
licenses. The jointly filed applications are listed in the Appendix to this public notice.

Tribune is seeking the Commission’s consent to implement its “Joint Plan of Reorganization for Tribune
Company and its Subsidiaries.” In connection with the Applications for Consent to Assignment of
Broadcast Station License (FCC Form 314), Tribune seeks waivers, to the extent necessary, of the
Commission’s newspaper/broadcast cross-ownership rule, Section 73.3555(d), and the local television
multiple ownership rule, Section 73.3555(b), Note 5 (satellite exemption) and Note 7 (failing station
waiver).

Tribune’s counsel has requested that this proceeding be made permit-but-disclose for ex parte purposes.
In view of this and in order to assure the staff’s ability to discuss and obtain information needed to resolve
the issues presented expeditiously, adoption of modified ex parte procedures is appropriate. Accordingly,
by this Public Notice, and pursuant to Section 1.1200(a) of the Commission’s rules, 1 we announce that
the ex parte procedures applicable to permit-but-disclose proceedings will govern our consideration of the
instant proceeding. 2

Permit-but-disclose ex parte procedures permit interested parties to make ex parte presentations to the
Commissioners and Commission employees and require that these presentations be disclosed in the
record of the relevant proceeding. Persons making a written ex parte presentation to the Commissioners
or Commission employees must file the written presentation with the Commission’s Secretary no later
than the next business day after the presentation. 3 Persons making oral ex parte presentations must file a

filings must be clearly labeled as such and must reference MB Docket No. 10-104.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The applications for assignment referred to in this Public Notice have been accepted for filing upon initial
review. The Commission reserves the right to return any application if, upon further examination, it is
determined to be defective and not in conformance with the Commission’s rules, regulations, or policies.
Interested persons must file petitions to deny no later than June 14, 2010. Persons and entities that file
comments or petitions to deny become parties to the proceeding. They may participate fully in the
proceeding, including seeking access to any confidential and/or highly confidential information that may
be filed under a protective order. Persons and entities that do not file petitions to deny, including those
who file comments, may not seek reconsideration of the Commission’s decision regarding the assignment
of the licenses at issue nor appeal a final decision to the courts.

To allow the Commission to consider fully all substantive issues regarding the Application in as timely
and efficient a manner as possible, petitioners and commenters should raise all issues in their initial
filings. New issues may not be raised in responses or replies. A party or interested person seeking to raise
a new issue after the pleading cycle has closed must show good cause why it was not possible for it to
have raised the issue previously. Submissions after the pleading cycle has closed that seek to raise new
issues based on new facts or newly discovered facts should be filed within 15 days after such facts are
discovered. Absent such a showing of good cause, any issues not timely raised may be disregarded by the
Commission.

All filings concerning matters referenced in this Public Notice should refer to MB Docket No. 10-104 ,
and if they pertain only to specific applications or matters, to the specific file numbers of the individual
applications or matters as well.
