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 owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.

Fernando Cerimedo, an Argentine political consultant known for his work with right wing leaders, was arrested at Viru Viru International Airport in Santa Cruz de la Sierra while attempting to fly to Buenos Aires. He is accused of being the intellectual author of an attempted murder against his former partner, Nadia Beller. Beller was shot three times in the neck, chest, and arm on August 17 by two men disguised as delivery workers. She underwent a three hour surgery and was admitted to the intensive care unit. Prosecutors have charged Cerimedo with attempted feminicide, noting that Beller is approximately four weeks pregnant.
