Hearst has confirmed reports that they are offering the Seattle Post-Intelligencer to the highest (or any) bidder, but they don't expect to find a buyer according to a report by KING 5. If a buyer is not found, the P-I would cease to exist as a print publication, either moving to digital distribution or closing shop entirely.
Since the P-I relies entirely on The Seattle Times for printing and distribution, the only assets available to potential buyers are a newsroom staffed with journalists and a subscriber base, which pretty much makes them undesirable.
