History and publications

[edit]

E&E is a subscription-based news service with paywalls. As of 2014, annual subscriptions cost between $2,000 and $150,000, depending on the range of products subscribed to.[1] It was founded in 1998 by Kevin Braun and Michael Witt,[1] with seven initial employees.[2] The company began as a Capitol Hill clipping service, later became a weekly newsletter, and in 2000 became a Web-based news service.[1]

As a specialist, niche news service,[3] most of E&E's subscribers are institutions, including think tanks, energy companies and other corporations, environmentalist groups, law firms, and state and federal agencies.[1]

Publications and services that are or were part of E&E News include EnergyWire (launched in 2012), ClimateWire (launched in 2008), E&E Daily, E&E PM, OnPoint (a daily webcast), and Greenwire (purchased from the National Journal).[1] E&E formerly had a content partnership with The New York Times. Pieces from E&E's ClimateWire are sometimes republished by Scientific American.[1]

As of 2014, it employed roughly 75 journalists in ten cities across the United States.[1]

In January 2018, E&E News announced former editor-in-chief Kevin Braun would be stepping down and named Cy Zaneski as executive editor. The company cited inappropriate behavior as the reason for Braun's ouster.[4]

In May 2018, the E&E News, along with the Associated Press and CNN, was barred from a national summit on harmful water contaminants by the Trump administration's EPA.[5][6][7][8]

E&E News was acquired by Politico in December 2020. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Politico said it would keep the E&E News brand and its journalism in place.[9]
