About Axios
Axios (styled ΛXIOS in the logo) is an American news website based in Arlington, Virginia.

The site's name is based on the Ancient Greek: ἄξιος ắxĭos, meaning "worthy". Axios articles are often brief to facilitate quick reading; most are shorter than 300 words and use bullet points. In addition to news articles, Axios produces daily and weekly industry-specific newsletters (including Allen's Axios AM, a successor to his newsletter Politico Playbook for Politico). On September 1, 2022, Cox Enterprises completed its acquisition of Axios.
