ALT Composite graphic labeled “DATA” summarizing Pew Research Center findings about Politico. Text notes that nearly 20 years after launching in the U.S., about half of Americans have heard of Politico, and that Democrats are more likely than Republicans to use Politico and to trust it as a news source. Two bar charts are shown: one displays awareness of Politico, with about half of U.S. adults saying they have heard of it, higher among Democrats than Republicans and higher among older adults than younger adults; the second shows trust in Politico, with 13% of U.S. adults saying they trust it, including 21% of Democrats and 4% of Republicans.
