i noticed that on their wiki page also, the sale was October 2021 so only about a year and a half since. don't read politico much so can't say if there is a culture shift yet. interesting that Axel Springer AE itself is majority owned by US based KKR. what influence KKR has is unknown, most of the time investment holding outfits don't take much active control of the companies they acquire as long as they are profitable.
my guess is politico still leans left and KKR isn't looking to change that, to them it's just an investment.
