Politico has named Jonathan Greenberger as its next global editor in chief, succeeding John Harris at the political news outlet.
Greenberger will take the role on May 1. Harris, who co-founded Politico, will become chairman.
Greenberger joined Politico as executive vice president in 2024 after a decade as ABC News’ Washington bureau chief. He also served as executive producer of ABC News This Week.
Mathias Döpfner, the CEO of Politico parent Axel Springer, said that Greenberger “will shape Politico’s next disruptive chapter.”
Goli Sheikholeslami, CEO of Politico, said in a statement, “At the end of an extensive search process, Jonathan’s new and unconventional thinking convinced all of us that he was the person most likely to see possibilities that others do not and bring our forward-looking vision to life.”
Harris said in a statement, “Jonathan’s candidacy prevailed in a highly competitive field of contenders because of his ideas and achievements in innovation and driving swift organization-wide change.”
Politico also announced that Dasha Burns will take on the added role of Politico global anchor, adding to her titles that also include White House bureau chief, host of The Conversation and chief correspondent for Playbook. She will work with Greenberger to develop new video and audio formats.
