Tom Temin Retiring From Federal News Network
• Hubbard Radio’s Federal News Network, the premier source of news and information for federal employees and contractors, is seeking a new host and anchor for its flagship program, The Federal Drive. Tom Temin (left), the current managing editor and anchor of The Federal Drive, is retiring in April 2025 after 17 years of leading the program and more than 45 years in journalism.
FNN is looking for someone who brings excitement, passion and interest in providing federal and industry executives with news and information about the policies, people and programs that drive the mission of the federal government. The ideal candidate MUST have knowledge of, and high degree of interest in, information technology, acquisition, human resources, financial and program management as they operate within the federal government.
“Managing and anchoring The Federal Drive is one of the best and most rewarding jobs in Washington journalism,” said Temin. “It’s the chance to interact with and bring out the stories and perspectives of leading thinkers in federal management, the contracting community, and the legal, think-tank and academic domains. Plus it’s great fun and the opportunity to work with a dedicated and talented team.”
For this position, experience in developing ideas, conducting and managing interviews is strongly preferred, but consideration will be given for the right person with the right background in federal issues. The host is primarily responsible for show content and adherence to Federal News Network editorial niche of serving federal employees and contractors.
“The Federal Drive is where the community of federal employees and the contracting community come to discuss issues that matter to the mission of delivering government,” said Jeffrey Wolinsky, Federal News Network Publisher. “Therefore, we are seeking a dynamic person that can provide this content to the community omnichannel, in the way they consume it. Tom’s contributions over the past 17 years are immeasurable and have impacted so many in the community. His shoes will be impossible to replace and difficult to fill.”
