No Bonus Checks For 5 Tribune Execs Being Sued Over Bankruptcy

Today a bankruptcy judge gave the green light on a multimillion-dollar bonus plan for over 600 Tribune Co. managers — but only after the company removed the names of five employees currently being sued from the list. Harry Amsden, Chandler Bigelow, Robert Gremillion, Daniel G. Kazan, and David D. Williams are top Tribune executives who are defendants in a lawsuit filed by creditors due to their roles in the company’s 2007 leveraged buyout.
