Pamplin Media Group announced Monday that it has sold The Portland Tribune and two dozen other Oregon publications to Carpenter Media, a Mississippi company that has been buying up small publications across the country. “Due to age and health reasons, it made sense to pass the company on to someone else who will carry on the tradition of balanced journalism, the old-fashioned way,” Robert Pamplin, the chain’s owner, said in a written statement. He did not disclose terms of the transaction.
