NYT Co. Pulls 'Globe' Off Market

The New York Times Co. announced it is retaining The Boston Globe but is still seeking buyers for the Worcester (Mass.) Telegram & Gazette, the company disclosed in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing late this afternoon.

“After careful consideration and analysis,” the company said in the filing, “it has terminated the process to explore the sale of the Boston Globe, Boston.com, and related businesses.”
