  • 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.

The owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.

The war involving Iran is rattling the Gulf region. Qatar has reduced state spending both domestically and internationally as the conflict has shrunk its economy. This wealthy nation has been significantly affected by the conflict between the United States and Iran regarding the Strait of Hormuz.
