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 source for this story reports from Brazil.
Every outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.
The defense of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has informed Minister Alexandre de Moraes of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) that Bolsonaro did not authorize the use of his image in an artificial intelligence video. The video was displayed during a PL party convention that officialized Flávio Bolsonaro as a candidate for the presidency.
CNN analyst Teo Cury suggests this legal strategy is intended to protect Jair Bolsonaro from potential consequences, such as the revocation of his house arrest and a return to prison, by shifting responsibility toward Flávio Bolsonaro. The defense argued that while Flávio and other children have historically used their father's image due to political alignment, there was no explicit consent for this specific instance.
The situation has also drawn public commentary, with some readers in Folha de S.Paulo arguing that the justice system should not have double standards regarding the treatment of different political figures.
