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 Canoe World Championships in Poznan, Poland, began with strong performances from the German and Hungarian teams. Germany earned three medals on the first final day, including gold for the men's K4 team consisting of Max Rendschmidt, Max Lemke, Jacob Schopf, and Tom Liebscher-Lucz, as well as gold for the women's C2 team of Carlotta Loske and Maike Jakob. The German women's K4 team won bronze. Hungary also secured two gold medals on Friday.
