- A hatched block means the outlet is affiliated with, or controlled by, a state.
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.
Every outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.
Switzerland's Audrey Werro won the women's 800 meters at the European Championships in Birmingham with a championship record time of 1:54.81. The victory denied home favorite and Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson a third consecutive title, as the Briton finished second in 1:55.01. Femke Broeders-Bol of the Netherlands took the bronze medal with a time of 1:55.54, which equaled the Dutch record. Werro's win followed a dramatic semi-final on Thursday where she suffered a fall but was reinstated into the final after video replays showed she had been clipped by another athlete. Broeders-Bol's bronze medal marks a successful debut season in the 800 meters following her transition from the 400 meter hurdles. The final took place before a sellout crowd of 23,000 at Alexander Stadium. In other events, Germany's Owen Ansah won the men's 200 meters in 19.95 seconds, while Britain's Zharnel Hughes took silver.
