The Tampa Bay Times is navigating through significant challenges as they cover Hurricane Milton, which has caused extensive damage to their building after a crane fell onto it. With most staff evacuated and working remotely, the newsroom has faced operational difficulties, including power outages. This is the second hurricane the newspaper's staff has reported on in a month, adding strain to their resources. Despite these adversities, they continue to provide timely coverage online, although their print edition has been halted. The newspaper has also recently reduced its workforce due to economic pressures on the local news industry.
