Image via WikipediaThe New York Post is reporting today a rumor that its rival Gotham tabloid New York Daily News may be sold by Mort Zuckerman to the DNA Info Website, which is backed by the Ricketts family.

Although none of the potential players involved commented on the rumor, the Post said DNA Info, which reports on Manhattan, is considering a takeover of the Daily News. Tom Ricketts is the chair of the Chicago Cubs, which the family acquired from the bankrupt Tribune Co. for $900 million.
