The company also publishes Politico New York,[4] a web site and magazine focused on the politics of New York City and New York state, as well as the inner workings of the New York-based news media, and which later expanded to cover New Jersey and Florida before being rebranded as Politico websites.

In 2020, it launched Protocol ,[5] a publication covering the people, power and politics of tech.

In 2021 Politico and Protocol were acquired by Axel Springer SE, a German publisher for US1ドルbillion.[2] [3] [6]
