Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single 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.

The Argentine national field hockey team, known as Los Leones, will face the Netherlands this Tuesday at 13:00 Argentina time. The match is part of the second round of Group A in the 2026 Men's Hockey World Cup and will take place at the Wagener Hockey Stadium in Amstelveen, Netherlands. The game will be broadcast on ESPN 2 and streamed via Disney+ Premium. Both teams entered the match following victories in their opening games: Argentina defeated Japan 3 to 0, while the Netherlands beat New Zealand 5 to 1. Argentina currently sits in second place in the group standings. The Argentine squad, led by coach Lucas Rey, includes players such as Lucas Toscani, Lucio Méndez Pin, and Maico Casella. Historical data shows the Netherlands has won six of the eight World Cup meetings between the two sides, though Argentina has performed better in recent Pro League encounters. Following this match, Argentina is scheduled to play New Zealand on Thursday, August 20, while the Netherlands will face Japan.
