  • Andrew J. Glass Is a Contributing Editor at POLITICO
    Andrew J. Glass is a Contributing Editor at POLITICO In October 2006, I joined the editorial staff of POLITICO, a publication based in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area with a broad multimedia presence. It began publishing both in print and on the web on Jan. 23, 2007. We offer our readers and viewers intensive and incisive coverage of Congress, the executive branch and the national political scene. A European edition was launched in 2015. The print version normally appears four days a week whenever Congress is in session and once a week when it is not. From time to time, POLITICO Magazine publishes exclusive long-form articles. In 2009, POLITICO was spun out of Allbritton Communications Company, which operated, among other local television properties, WJLA (Channel 7) and Channel 8 in the Washington, D.C. market. On July 24, 2014, the Federal Communications Commission approved their sale to Sinclair Broadcast Group for $985 million. With the transfer of assets, POLITICO became the primary publication of Capitol News Company, LLC. It is a private media company based in Arlington, Virginia, owned by Robert L. Allbritton. It also publishes Politico New York, a web site and magazine focused on the politics of New York City and 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. Until undertaking my current position, I wrote a weekly column for The Hill, another Washington-based newspaper that covers Congress, after having served as the paper’s senior editor in 2002 and as its managing editor from January 2003 until April 2004.
