Warren Buffett's BH Media Group today announced that it will acquire the Tulsa World from the Lorton family. The Tulsa World is a 95,000 daily and 133,000 circulation Sunday newspaper serving Tulsa County and the surrounding region.

The Tulsa World is the leading provider of local news and information for the Tulsa area. Tulsaworld.com is the largest and best read web site in Tulsa County and the surrounding area.

“The Tulsa World is a special newspaper in an outstanding market and we are honored to have the opportunity to own it,” said Terry Kroeger, CEO of BH Media Group. “This is a great fit for our company, and we look forward for this region. We welcome the Tulsa employees into the BH Media family and are delighted to have the opportunity to work with them.”

“The Lorton family has been great to do business with as we have worked toward this ownership transition,” Kroeger said.
