- 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.

Spanish rider Enric Mas has strengthened his hold on the red jersey at the Vuelta a España, extending his lead in the general classification to 1 minute and 45 seconds over Primoz Roglic and 2 minutes and 6 seconds over Felix Gall.
