Overview
POLITICO is an American digital media and news organization headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, specializing in nonpartisan coverage of politics, public policy, and government affairs. Founded in 2007 by Robert Allbritton, John F. Harris, and Jim VandeHei, the publication established itself through fast-paced, high-detail political reporting, influential daily newsletters like *Playbook*, and a paid subscription platform (POLITICO Pro) tailored for policy professionals, lobbyists, and decision-makers. In 2021, the media company was acquired by German publishing giant Axel Springer SE, expanding its global footprint across North America and Europe.
