Tallahassee, FL (1888PressRelease) March 24, 2012 - The site generates nearly 100,000 hits per month from Web visitors looking to get their daily serving of political news, including coverage and commentary on the U.S. Republican nomination race, local Tallahassee news, and articles on business, sports and entertainment.

"At SSN, we wake up each day thinking about how we can make your experience better. In that regard, 2011 was an exciting year as we unveiled a bold new look and even better functionality -- offering not only the top political news, but the best sports, entertainment and regional news from around the state," Nancy Smith, Editor-in-Chief at Sunshine State News said. "Along the way, we were also laser-focused on providing coverage and perspectives ignored by traditional mainstream media."

SSN has attracted national attention from top-flight news organizations such as Drudge Report, Fox News, Politico, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and The New York Times. SSN was also honored in the summer to see SSN's Chatterbox voted one of Florida's best political blogs by Washington Post readers.

The organization continues to work hard to be a top source for Florida news finding new ways to deliver quality stories to their current readers and engage new subscribers. Stay tuned this month for the exclusive launch of the Power10, an ongoing series of SSN's Top 10 Lists.

"From all of us here at Sunshine State News, thank you for your readership. As always, we'd love to hear what's on your mind. Pick up the phone, send us an email or text, tell us what you think, give us your suggestions, your story tips, we love to hear them. Just, please, no faxes … this is new media after all!"
