🗞️ The Floridian Headlines: A Statewide Expansion Rooted in Edgewater Legacy

Edgewater, FL — October 2025 A new chapter in Florida journalism is about to unfold. The Floridian Headlines, a bold expansion of the Edgewater Gazette, is set to launch this season—bringing sweeping coverage of the Sunshine State to readers from every corner of Florida and beyond.

🌴 From the Capitol to the Coastline

Designed to reflect the full spectrum of Florida life, The Floridian Headlines will report on everything from legislative developments in Tallahassee to cultural shifts in Miami, environmental updates from the Everglades, and economic trends along the Emerald Coast. The new source promises to be “less local and more Florida-wide”—a platform built for everyone, whether they’re lifelong residents or curious observers across the country.

📰 A Broader Lens, A Bigger Impact

This expansion marks a significant evolution in the Gazette’s mission. While The Floridian Headlines will take on a wider scope—covering statewide politics, business, education, environment, and culture—it will also serve as a bridge to national conversations, positioning Florida’s stories within broader regional and global contexts.

“Florida is more than a state—it’s a bellwether, a battleground, and a cultural mosaic,” said Kerry B. Lewis, editorial leader and founder. “With The Floridian Headlines, we’re building a source that reflects that complexity and reaches readers far beyond our borders.”

🏡 Edgewater Gazette: Still Here, Still Local

Despite the expansion, the Edgewater Gazette isn’t going anywhere. The publication will continue to serve Volusia County and surrounding communities with the same heart, urgency, and transparency that have defined its legacy. Local readers can expect continued coverage of neighborhood events, small business stories, and community advocacy—now complemented by the broader reach of The Floridian Headlines.

📣 Coming Soon

The official launch of The Floridian Headlines is expected in late fall, with a full editorial calendar, contributor network, and digital platform rollout. Readers can look forward to investigative features, statewide spotlights, and interactive tools designed to engage, inform, and inspire.

Together, The Edgewater Gazette and The Floridian Headlines will form a powerful media ecosystem—rooted in community, expanding with purpose, and committed to telling Florida’s story like never before.
