The end is near: Tampa Tribune stops daily delivery of paper in Pinellas
May 14, 2009 at 8:56 am by Wayne GarciaI came to Tampa Bay in 1988 to work for the Tampa Tribune in Pinellas County, then on the front lines of the newspaper war with the St. Petersburg Times. So it is with sadness I read this story about the Trib finally giving up the fight, from the Times:
The Tampa Tribune will be ceasing daily subscription service in Pinellas County after this weekend, according to a flier distributed in the newspaper this morning.
The flier said that weekend or daily subscription will change to Sunday delivery only, beginning Sunday, May 17. It offers a courtesy subscription to USA Today through May 22, and tells readers to “watch your mailbox for a special offer” for the national publication.
