It seems less than a week goes by without a new media outlet or website covering Florida politics.
I remember when I was the new guy in town, the traditional media didn’t exactly roll out the welcome mat.
Today, inexplicably, I find myself in traditional media, or as a friend Gary fine out explains one of the leaders of the Rebel Alliance.
I don’t really care if the game has new players. That’s because I remember a friend who runs a restaurant explaining it to me.
He owned a successful Italian restaurant in a prime location with not much competition around him. But a brasserie was opening across the street, so he asked if I was worried.
“Not at all,” he said. He explained that there was his second restaurant on the block, now part of the restaurant district. Customers got their drinks at his place and ate at the French place and vice versa. Other bars and restaurants will emerge.
He was right, which is why we love seeing new media outposts in Florida, whether from a conservative perspective or from the left.
Of course, there is a difference between welcoming competition and losing. And we refuse to lose to our competitors at Florida Politics.
Well, lots of new sites, lots of new listings.
But there’s only one site that covers all of Florida’s politics. And there is only one definitive list of the most influential figures in Florida politics.
The INFLUENCE 150 wastes no time seeking government approval. Ron DeSantis The most powerful individual in the state. Nor do we operate in a world where the Attorney General has less power than the Director of Economic Opportunity, or where the next House Democratic leader has more power than the Director of Economic Opportunity. Wilton simpson.
For me, Influence 150 is sanctuary. I spent months going through lists and arguing with some of the most important and serious operators in Florida politics. And you’ll only do as well as the last campaign cycle or legislative session.
There are no inheritances on this list.
The boldest design yet when it comes to this particular edition of INFLUENCE. Considering it was runner-up for the best design magazine in the state, that’s saying something.
This edition is imbued with Yves Klein Blue throughout as a tribute to the landmark Michael man The movie Heat I ran out of budget and sent photographers across the state to capture original shots of what was featured.
Simply put, this is the best edition of INFLUENCE Magazine we have published in six years.
Because that’s how you answer the competition.
