The Tampa Tribune first spread news of the day to Tampa's 10,000 citizens in 1895. Now the Tribune, owned by Richmond, Va., communications corporation Media General, provides news to more than 622,000 readers daily and almost 800,000 on Sunday in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Hernando and Polk counties. In addition, it provides news and information to readers in a way most newspapers cannot.

On March 20, 2000, the Tribune's newsroom moved into a $40 million complex. That and the original Tribune building in downtown Tampa make up a two-building campus called The News Center. Together with TBO.com and WFLA-TV News Channel 8, the Tribune offers area residents reliable, consistent news, as well as the resources of three of the most trusted news services in community. And, it's the only converged media location in the country to house a network television station, a newspaper and an online service.

Our vision of the future includes convergence: delivering content to customers however and wherever they want it. Through convergence, we bring together the strengths of newspapers, television stations and web sites to coordinate the best local news coverage. Convergence strengthens the quality of our journalism. By becoming the preferred local source of news, information and entertainment, we are able to deliver a higher quality audience to our advertisers. And with the multimedia advertising packages we can provide through convergence, we also gain the ability to generate new revenues.

In addition to print and broadcast journalism we also offer rewarding careers in areas such as circulation, advertising, marketing, operations, production, finance and accounting.

Today, The Tampa Tribune ranks as one of the top 50 largest newspapers in the United States and one of the fastest growing. WFLA-TV is the number one ranked TV station in Florida. And Tampa Bay Online is the leading local news website in Florida.

The Tampa Tribune is a reflection of our community, and those who live here. The Tampa Tribune is the Tampa Bay area's newspaper.
