- Hatched: the outlet is state-affiliated or state-controlled
Lean is where the outlet sits in its OWN country's politics, never on one global scale.
Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.
Ownership is disclosed, never rated.
Adidas shares plummeted following the World Cup tournament. One source reports a record 19 percent drop, while another states the stock fell 17 percent. According to one report, sales increased during the tournament; however, strong advertising expenses reduced profits more than expected. Outlets of center lean frame the event as the World Cup bump falling short. In contrast, outlets of center-left lean frame it as a success in sales that was undermined by high advertising costs.
