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.

Flamengo defeated Mirassol 2 to 0 in a delayed fourth round match of the Campeonato Brasileiro on Wednesday at the Maracanã stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Jorge Carrascal and Lucas Paquetá scored both goals for Flamengo during the first half. With this victory, Flamengo reached 51 points, leaving them only one point behind the league leader, Palmeiras. Mirassol remains in 16th place with 25 points, which is the same total as Vasco and Internacional. The bottom of the table includes Remo and Chapecoense in the relegation zone. Flamengo faced some setbacks during the match as Erick Pulgar and Evertton Araújo both left the game due to injuries. Both players will be evaluated by the club's medical department. Flamengo is scheduled to play Remo in Belém on Sunday, while Mirassol will visit Coritiba. Palmeiras will face Botafogo on Sunday.
