- 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.
The government of Bangladesh expressed outrage after former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina conducted a live media briefing from New Delhi. The current administration warned that India allowing the event undermines efforts to reset bilateral ties between the two neighboring countries. During the press conference, Hasina stated that she intends to return to Bangladesh in December, asserting that her return is about putting the country back on the right track and returning to her people rather than seeking power. Hasina also discussed post uprising violence targeting minorities, her party, and its sympathizers. While the government of Bangladesh reacted with outrage, some analysis suggests the event served as a test of her adversaries' resolve and a signal to her party.

- Outlets with a center lean framed the event as either a diplomatic tension between Bangladesh and India or as a strategic political move by Hasina to test the current political climate.
