The headline of The Times-Picayune says, “No flooding, but massive power outages as Gustav weakens.”
The lack of power in New Orleans has impacted even the newspaper, which has been reporting and photographing news of Hurricane Gustav. Using a generator, the staff was able to put together a newspaper. But without electricity to power a printing press, the newspaper could not print today’s edition. Instead, it posted images of pages on its Web site.
The Newseum -- like many others interested in news about the massive storm -- pulled a copy of The Times-Picayune front page from the Internet.
If power is not restored this afternoon, the newspaper says it will seek an alternative location to print tomorrow’s newspaper. And The Times-Picayune will be awaiting the return of newspaper carriers, many of whom evacuated ahead of the storm.
