"We believe the intention of the attack was to disable infrastructure, more specifically servers, as opposed to looking to steal information," a source told the Times.
The attack also affected Tribune Publishing properties, who owned the Los Angeles Timesand San Diego Union Tribuneuntil June, when it was sold to biotech investor Patrick Soon-Shiong.
The Chicago Tribunesaid its print edition was published without paid death notices and classified ads, while other Tribune newspapers had a slimmed down version of the Saturday edition delivered on a Sunday.
