Usual reminder that politico is owned by Germanys largest right leaning yellow press publisher Axel Springer: https://www.reuters.com/business/media-telecom/axel-springer-acquire-news-website-politico-2021-08-26/

So take everything with a grain of salt on there.

Thanks, wasn't aware of that.

Is there a Europe focus source that is more neutral?

BBC, Euronews and Deutsche Well are highly factual while having centre-left bias according to mediabiasfactcheck.com which is why I favor using them to post news to Lemmy.

In the same way, I assume, that universities and public institutions have a left-leaning bias.
