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.

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva stated during a campaign rally in Teresina on Wednesday that he will not accept interference from the United States in the Brazilian electoral process. Lula specifically mentioned Donald Trump, telling the US president to stay in his own country and asserting that Brazilians possess the dignity and character to handle their own elections. During the speech, the president also warned that the electoral court should not attempt any fraud or cheating, although he did not explicitly clarify if he was referring to the Superior Electoral Court (TSE).
