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.

American singer Halsey performed on the Mundo stage at Rock in Rio on Sunday. The show featured a theatrical and performative style that highlighted the artist's versatility across genres including rock, pop, and electronic music. Halsey opened her set with the song Nightmare and performed other tracks such as Castle, I am not a Woman, I am a god, and Colors. During the performance, she utilized various stage elements including a virtual castle, fire, and a chain during the song Dog Years. She also interacted with the crowd, expressing her love for women and their freedom. The setlist drew heavily from her 2021 album If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power, while also touching upon her 2024 release The Great Impersonator and earlier hits like Without Me and Closer. The performance took place under persistent rain and concluded with the song Lonely is the Muse, which featured a visual of a bleeding nose. One report noted that the audience size was smaller than that of other performers on the final day of the event.
