The Tampa Tribune Newspaper Information

The Tampa Tribune, published in Tampa, Florida, is one of two major newspapers published in the Tampa Bay area, second in circulation and readership to the Tampa Bay Times. The paper's tagline is "Life. Printed Daily." The Tribune, as well as the Richmond Times-Dispatch, are the flagship newspapers under the Media General banner.

Daily publication of the Tribune started in 1895 when Wallace Stovall upgraded printing from once a week. In 1958, the struggling evening newspaper, the Tampa Daily Times, was bought out by the Tribune Company and was published until 1982. To this day, the logo for The Tampa Times continue to be displayed in the masthead on the front section, as a way for the Tribune to keep its trademark on the Tampa Times name, and to avoid confusion with the St. Petersburg Times, which publishes an edition for Tampa. In 2006, it was decided in a lawsuit that the Tribune could keep its exclusive use of The Tampa Times name, but only for five years. This exclusivity ended at the end of 2011, allowing the St. Petersburg Times to rename itself the Tampa Bay Times, effective January 1, 2012. The decision does not restrict the use of The Tampa Times name by the Tribune after the expiration of exclusivity -- as of January 2012, the Tribune continues to use The Tampa Times name in its masthead.
