John Harris, the former Washington Post journalist who co-founded Politico in 2007, will return to daily newsroom management as the publication’s global editor in chief, later this summer, replacing Matthew Kaminski, who has served as editor since 2019.
Sheikholeslami told employees that Kaminski was “candid in expressing his readiness for a new professional challenge” and that Harris, 59, was excited about the possibility of running a newsroom again. She said that Harris’s background as co-founder of Politico “gives him a unique perspective to see and seize opportunities others may not.”Kaminski had originally replaced Harris when he stepped down as U.S. editor in chief back in 2019.
“There are really cool opportunities in front of us, and I found myself interested in them, curious about them, and passionate about them in ways that I haven’t felt in a long, long time,” Harris said in an interview Monday afternoon. “I am more interested in the place and its future than I have been for a while.”
Considering his history at the publication, “I think I’ve got a voice that carries on some of the most sensitive questions about strategy and our future,” Harris added.
