Kevin Derby, senior political reporter for Sunshine State News and one of the state's most knowledgeable people on Florida political history, will hit Floridas airwaves on a daily basis, starting today.

His Sunshine State News Update is set to launch on the 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. daily conservative talk show, Ed Dean Radio Show.

Derby's "Update" segment will air at 6 p.m.

Im excited to bring our Sunshine State News perspective to listeners all across Florida, Derby said. Ed Dean is one of the most entertaining and informative personalities on the radio and Im looking forward to working with him on a daily basis.

He has also worked for the Florida Chamber of Commerce, the Sayfie Media Group, the Center for the Community Interest and was a campaign aide for U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, during his bid for the Republican presidential nomination in 2000.

"Kevin is a likeable character with a fairly spectacular knowledge of politics and political history in Florida," says Nancy Smith, executive editor of Sunshine State News. "I think listeners will find he brings that knowledge to bear on trends, elections and candidates on all levels -- and he does it with great humor. Sunshine State News is proud to share Kevin with a state listening audience."
