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 outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.

The Hungarian government plans to scrap a restriction on gay adoption established during the Orban era. Prime Minister Magyar stated that the decision regarding adoption should not rest with politicians. Instead, he argued that professionals should determine where a child can flourish into a happy and harmonious member of society.
