Media General's Tampa Tribune's newsroom will lose more employees. According to reports, 11 newsroom staffers will be cut this week with another 10 news jobs to be eliminated by early fall. At least they got some notice. Wonder if someone just handed THEM a box and said "Get out."
A story on The Tribune's website says the newsroom will have about 200 employees after the staff reductions. One of the comments on the Tampa Tribune website from a former Media General employee said:
