History

[edit]

Origins, style, and growth

[edit]

Politicowas founded in 2007 to focus on politics with fast-paced Internet reporting in granular detail, comparable to the sports analysis ofSportsCenter[10]orESPN.[11]John F. HarrisandJim VandeHeileftThe Washington Postto becomePolitico's editor-in-chief and executive editor, respectively. With the financial backing ofRobert L. Allbritton,the pair launched the website on January 23, 2007.[12][13]Their first hire wasMike Allen,a writer forTime,[14]andFrederick J. Ryan Jr.served as its first president and chief executive officer.[15]Martin Tolchinwas another member of the editorial founding team.[16][17]

From the beginning, journalists covering political campaigns forPoliticocarried a video camera to each assignment,[18]and they were encouraged to promote their work elsewhere.[19]By 2008,Politicoreceived more than three million unique visits per month.[20]

In September 2008,The New York Timesreported thatPoliticowould expand its operations following the2008 U.S. presidential election,and that "after Election Day, [Politico] will add reporters, editors, Web engineers and other employees; expand circulation of its newspaper edition in Washington; and print more often. "[21]Between the 2008 and2012elections,Politico's staff more than tripled in size.[22]Notable additions included two political commentators,Michael KinsleyandJoe Scarborough,as opinion writers.[23]

In 2009, the web pages shortened their name fromThe Politicoto more simplyPolitico.In 2011,Politicobegan to focus more onlong-form journalismand news analysis.[12][24]This shift in coverage received further support in June 2013 with the hiring ofSusan Glasserto oversee "opinion from prominent outside voices" and "long-form storytelling".[25]In September 2014, Glasser was tapped to serve asPolitico's new editor, following the resignation of Richard Berke the previous month.[26]

VandeHei was namedPolitico's new CEO in October 2013.[27]Under his leadership,Politicocontinued to grow: in 2014 alone, it expanded revenues by 25%.[28]By 2016,Politicohad nearly 500 employees worldwide.[29]

Amidst reports of tensions, VandeHei and Allen announced that they would leavePoliticoafter the2016 presidential election,but left far sooner.[12][30]Allbritton, then Executive Chairman and owner, was named acting CEO in Vandehei's stead.[30]Several months after their departure, Washingtonian Magazine reported that the relationship ultimately deteriorated during a series of events including VandeHei pushing Allbritton to sell the company, and Allbritton losing faith in VandeHei's abilities as a CEO.[31]

Investment banker Patrick Steel served as CEO between 2017 and 2021.[32][33]He departed the company in early 2021 after four years.[34]

Goli Sheikholeslami, who had been the CEO ofWNYCpublic radio, was announced as CEO by new owner Axel Springer in January 2022 and tasked with leading operations of bothPoliticoandPolitico Europe.[35]

Dafna Linzer,who had been at MSNBC and NBC News, was named as the new executive editor in March 2022.[36]She departed in 2023 after serving a year in the role.[37]

Politico Playbook

[edit]

On June 25, 2007,[38]Mike Allenlaunched Playbook, a daily early-morning email newsletter.[39][40]Within a few years, the newsletter had attained a large readership amongst members of the D.C. community.[14]By 2016, over 100,000 people—including "insiders, outsiders, lobbyists and journalists, governors, senators, presidents and would-be presidents" —read Playbook daily.[41]Multiple commentators credit Allen and Playbook with strongly influencing the substance and tone of the rest of the national politicalnews cycle.[14][41][42]

Daniel Lippman joinedPoliticoin June 2014, in large part to assist Allen with Playbook.[43]Upon Allen's departure in July 2016 to startAxios,Anna Palmer andJake Shermanjoined Lippman to assume Playbook-writing duties.[44]In March 2017,Politicoannounced the creation of a second, mid-day edition of Playbook—entitled "Playbook Power Briefing" —written by the same people who authored the morning edition.[45]

In 2017, a weekly sponsorship of Playbook cost between $50,000 and $60,000.[46][47]After Palmer and Sherman left to foundPunchbowl News,Politicoannounced a new team of Playbook authors in 2021, includingRachael Bade,Ryan Lizza,Tara PalmeriandEugene Daniels.[48]Mike Debonis, previously of the Washington Post, was hired as editor of Politico Playbook in 2022.[49]In April, 2022, Palmeri left POLITICO after being moved off of Playbook.[50]

Since its launch in 2007, POLITICO's Playbook franchise has become global and exists in 13 different locations. These newsletters bring readers inside the conversation that matters within influential political villages and global power centers, includingWashington D.C.,New York,California,New Jersey,Florida,Illinois,Massachusetts,New Jersey,Ottawa,Brussels,London,Paris,and, as of February 2024,Berlin.More than one million influential readers currently subscribe to these POLITICO Playbooks.[51]

Politico Pro

[edit]

Politico Pro, a B2B subscription service, launched in 2010.[52]With roughly 300 reporters at its disposal, Politico Pro provides in-depth coverage of over a dozen major topic areas.[52][53]The service charges subscribing businesses by licenses and topic area (verticals), with the costs in the high four figures to high six figures depending on the scope of the subscription.[40][52]Despite the paywall in place, Politico Pro has a 93% subscription renewal rate, and it provides nearly half ofPolitico's overall revenue.[12][40]Access to the Politico.com, Politico Playbook, and its other newsletters remained free of charge.[52]

Politico Magazine

[edit]
The Politico,February 15, 2007

In November 2013,PoliticolaunchedPolitico Magazine(ISSN2381-1595), which is published online and bimonthly in print.[54][55]In contrast toPolitico's focus on "politics and policy scoops" and breaking news,Politico Magazinefocuses on "high-impact, magazine-style reporting", such as long-form journalism.[54][56]The first editor ofPolitico MagazinewasSusan Glasser,who came to the publication fromForeign Policymagazine.[56]

After Glasser was promoted to becomePolitico's editor,Garrett Graffwas named editor of the magazine.[57]He was followed by Blake Hounshell (2016–18), and Stephen Heuser (2019–2022). In September, 2022, Elizabeth Ralph was named editor ofPOLITICO Magazine,now solely a digital publication.[58]

Protocol

[edit]

In February 2020, Robert Allbritton, the then owner ofPolitico,launchedProtocol,an online tech news site focused on the "people, power and politics of tech."[59]The site focused on how to "arm decision-makers in tech, business and public policy" with important global technology news.[60]It operated as a separate company and with separate business and editorial management than Politico. It was shut down at the end of 2022 after struggling to meet revenue goals.[61]

State editions

[edit]

In September 2013,Politicoacquired the online news siteCapital New York,which also operated separate departments covering Florida and New Jersey.[62]In April 2015,Politicoannounced its intention to rebrand the state feeds with thePoliticoname (Politico Florida,Politico New Jersey,andPolitico New York) to expand its coverage of state politics.[63]In September 2018,Politicoannounced it would launchPolitico California Pro.[64]

Global expansion

[edit]

In September 2014,Politicoformed a joint venture with German publisherAxel Springer SEto launch its European edition, based inBrussels.[65]In December 2014, the joint venture announced its acquisition of Development Institute International, a leading French events content provider, andEuropean Voice,a European political newspaper, to be re-launched under thePoliticobrand.Politico Europedebuted in print on April 23, 2015.[66]

Politico.eu,the publication's Brussels-based European operation, was formally launched in 2015. In early 2016, it had about 50 editorial employees and two dozen business employees. A third-party survey published at the time ranked Politico.eu as most widely read news organization among 249 Brussels "influencers" surveyed, although the same panel found it less influential thanThe Financial Times,BBC,andThe Economist.[67]

Stephen Brown, who was named editor-in-chief ofPolitico Europein September 2019, died suddenly of a heart attack on March 18, 2021.[68][69]

Jamil Anderlini, previously Asia Editor of the Financial Times, was named Editor-in-Chief of Politico Europe in July, 2021.[70]

Focus on investigations

[edit]

Under Glasser and successorCarrie Budoff Brown,Politicoexpanded its focus on investigating Washington policymakers, leading to multiple resignations.A series of stories by Sherman and Palmer in 2015 "helped break open the scandal that forced the resignation of RepresentativeAaron Schockof Illinois in 2015, "according to theNew York Times.[71]Reporter Marianne Levine in 2017 "helped bring down Trump's Labor Secretary pick,"Andy Puzder,after breaking the story that Puzder's ex-wife had accused him of spousal abuse, according to Poynter.[72]Puzder withdrew his nomination after the story.

In September 2017, reporters Rachana Pradhan and Dan Diamond authored a "bombshell" investigation of how PresidentDonald Trump's health secretary,Tom Price,was flying on charter jets paid for by taxpayers, according to theWashington Post.[73]Price resigned after the stories.

The "indispensable" stories published byPoliticounder Budoff Brown in 2017 helped it "get its groove back," according to theWashingtonian's Andrew Beaujon.[74]

Politicoreporter Alex Thompson in February 2022 broke the "bombshell report" of howEric Lander,PresidentJoe Biden's science adviser, had been "demeaning" colleagues in the office, according toEndpoints News.[75]Lander resigned after the story.

Expansion

[edit]

Politico acquiredE&E Newsin December 2020 to expand its coverage of the energy and environmental sectors. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.[76]

Acquisition by Axel Springer

[edit]

In October 2021, the large German publishing and media firmAxel Springer SEannounced that it had completed the acquisition ofPoliticofor over $1 billion. The closing took place in late October 2021.[77][78][79]The new owners said they would add staff, and at some point, put the publication's news content behind apaywall.[80][81][82]

Axel Springer's Chief ExecutiveMathias Döpfnersaid that Politico staff would need to adhere to Axel Springer's principles,[83]including support for a united Europe, Israel's right to exist, advocate the transatlantic alliance between the United States of America and Europe and a free-market economy, and that staff who disagree with the principles "should not work for Axel Springer, very clearly".[84]Axel Springer said that they would not requirePoliticoemployees to sign documents in support of atransatlantic allianceor Israel, though this policy is enforced at German newspaperBild,another Axel Springer subsidiary.[85]

Supreme Court leak

[edit]

On May 2, 2022,Politicoobtained and released a 98-page draft document indicating that theSupreme Courtwas poised to strike down the landmarkRoe v. Wadedecision that legalized abortion nationwide, as well asPlanned Parenthood v. Casey,in its ruling onDobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.[86]Chief JusticeJohn Robertsdirected theMarshal of the Courtto conduct an investigation into the source of theleak.[87]The story became the most-trafficked in the publisher's history, with 11 million views by May 6.Politico's first tweet on the report gained more than triple the impressions it normally saw in an entire month on Twitter.[88]

Collaboration withWelton COVID-19 global response criticisms

[edit]

In September 2022,Politicopublished an exposé critical of NGO leadership at the helm of the worldwideCOVID-19 pandemicresponse, written in cooperation with the German newspaperDie Welt.Criticisms included the interconnectivity of the non-profits withBill Gates,as well as his personal lack of formal credentials in medicine. Additionally, the article cited the lack of public accountability of the NGOs, their haste to put forward their selected vaccine candidates while public debate was yet unfinished, possible conflicts of interest due to employment of non-profit staff in influential health regulatory bodies, and the massively funded lobbying arm of the consortium. Further censure was given due to lack of consultation with other well-credentialed international not-for-profit groups, and to governments for allowing themselves to be lobbied and yield leadership.[89]

Key staff

[edit]

In June 2024, several top Politico reporters left the company.[90]

Controversies

[edit]

PoliticoeditorMichael Hirshresigned in November 2016 after publishing the home address of white supremacistRichard B. Spenceron Facebook.[91]

In January 2022,Politico Playbookincorrectly reported thatUnited States Supreme CourtjusticeSonia Sotomayorhad been seen having dinner with leadingDemocrats,after Sotomayor earlier having claimed that she could not appear in person for oral arguments at the court. It later turned out thatPoliticohad mistakenChuck Schumer's wifeIris Weinshallfor Sotomayor, who had never been at the dinner, andPoliticodid not verify the report.[92][93][94]

Accusations of antisemitism

[edit]

Politico Magazinepublished an article in April 2017 purporting to show long-term links among U.S. PresidentDonald Trump,Russian PresidentVladimir Putin,and the Orthodox JewishHasidicdynastyChabad-Lubavitch.[95]The article was widely condemned in Jewish newspapers, with the head of theAnti-Defamation League,Jonathan Greenblatt,saying that it "evokes age-old myths about Jews".[96][97]

In March 2019,Politicowas again accused ofantisemitismwhen it published an article depicting imagery of presidential candidate U.S. SenatorBernie Sandersnext to money trees. Sanders, one of twoJewishcandidates for the2020 U.S. presidential election,was targeted for the amount of wealth he accumulated over his lifetime.[98]Politicostaff writer Michael Kruse wrote the article detailing the senator's wealth, writing that Sanders "might still be cheap", according to one of the senator's friends, "but he's sure not poor", which was criticized as combining twoantisemitic tropes(Jews are cheap; Jews are rich).Politico'sofficial Twitter account used the quote to share the story; the tweet was later deleted.[99]

Donald Trump

[edit]

On January 14, 2021, conservative commentatorBen Shapirowas featured as a guest writer forPolitico's Playbook newsletter, where he defendedRepublicansin theU.S. House of Representativeswho opposed thesecond impeachment of Donald Trump.[100]The newsletter drew backlash fromPoliticostaffers.Matthew Kaminski,editor in chief ofPolitico,declined to apologize and defended the decision to publish the article, stating: "We're not going to back away from having published something because some people think it was a mistake to do so." He added that the newspaper "stands by every word" in the article.[101]According toThe Daily Beast,more than 100Politicostaffers signed onto a letter to publisherRobert AllbrittoncriticizingPolitico's decision to feature Shapiro's article and the response from Kaminski.[102]

Cambridge Analytica,a British political consulting firm,microtargetedpro-Trump voters and anti-Hillary Clintonvoters withnative advertisingand sponsored or branded content onPolitico.[103][104][105]

In 2024, Politico were handed leaked confidential materials from the Donald Trump presidential campaign. Politico confirmed that the documents were authentic but refused to report on their contents. The Associated Press wrote that the decision by Politico to not report on the Trump campaign leaks stands "in marked contrast" to Politico's extensive reporting on the leaked email communications of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign manager, John Podesta.[106]

Fossil fuel advertising

[edit]

An investigation bythe Intercept,the Nation,andDeSmogfound that Politico is one of the leading media outlets that publishes advertising for thefossil fuelindustry.[107]Journalists who coverclimate changefor Politico are concerned thatconflicts of interestwith the companies and industries thatcaused climate changeandobstructed actionwill reduce the credibility of their reporting on climate change and cause readers to downplay theclimate crisis.[107]

Influence

[edit]

Allsides.comrates its media bias as "Leans Left" as of 2024.[112]

Multiple commentators have creditedPolitico's original organizational philosophy—namely, prioritizing scoops and publishing large numbers of stories—with forcing other, more-established publications to make a number of changes, such as increasing their pace of production and changing their tone.[12][14][46][113][114]Other outlets, includingAxiosandPunchbowl News,were started byPoliticoemployees.[115]
