I wasn't aware of recent changes in Axios until I read the Wiki page on it, at the bottom.
TIL:
"On August 8, 2022, Axios announced that it had been sold to Cox Enterprises for $525 million. As part of the transaction, Axios spun out Axios HQ as a separate software company.[15][16] According to the deal, Cox owns 70% of the company, while Axios employees and its founders retain ownership of the remaining 30%.[1] The acquisition was completed the following month.
[3]Since 2021, Axios has launched a network of local newsletters across the United States.[17] The company has also focused on growing its events business.
[18]In March 2023, Axios fired Ben Montgomery, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, after he described as "propaganda" a Florida Department of Education press release about an event hosted by Governor Ron DeSantis "exposing the diversity equity and inclusion scam in higher education".
[19]In August 2024, Axios laid off 50 employees, which amounted to 10% of total staff.[20] "
