This is from Wikipedia. The name Soros does not appear.

On the other hand, that of T. Boone Pickens does:

Thornton and his wife, Julie, seeded the venture with $1 million of their own money[14][15] to fund the organization’s nascent operations and began to raise money from around the state and around the country from individuals, corporations, and foundations.[14]

An additional $2.5 million donated by various foundations and Texas philanthropists including former Democratic Lt. Governor Ben Barnes, financier T. Boone Pickens and businessman Red McCombs.[16] Pickens in particular donated $150,000.[17] Foundations donated about $1.1 million, including a total of $750,000 in grants from the Houston Endowment.[18] The Sid W. Richardson Foundation of Fort Worth also gave a $100,000 operating grant beginning from 2015 and continues to provide an operating grant. The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation donated $250,000 in late 2009, and their subsequent donations totaled $2 million by December 2016. That month, they announced that they would match up to $25,000 in gifts of $1,000 or less pledged to the Tribune between then and January 19, 2017.[19] Most of the 68 corporate sponsors made a $2,500 commitment as co-founders of the publication. Thornton stated in January 2010, “In the coming months, we intend to become far more sophisticated in the way we market corporate sponsorships of both our site and our events series, TribLive.
