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.

Meghan Markle has posted a 34 second video on Instagram providing a glimpse into her family's life following their return to the United Kingdom after six years in California. The footage shows the Duchess and Prince Harry walking hand in hand through a wooded area, their son Archie running toward deer, and their daughter Lilibet riding a bicycle. Another segment shows Prince Harry fishing with the children while their dog is nearby. The post included emojis of a red heart and the United Kingdom flag.

Reports indicate the family is residing at a private property in the Cotswolds area outside of London, and the children have been enrolled in school. Despite their return, the couple will not resume official royal duties. A letter from King Charles III clarified that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are private citizens and non working royals. Consequently, they cannot use the titles of His and Her Royal Highness. A spokesperson for the couple stated they were surprised not to have been informed of this status in advance.

In their new arrangement, Meghan will continue to lead her company, As Ever, from Britain, while Harry will focus on his UK based charities. According to one report, the couple will maintain their 16 bedroom home in Montecito, California, and a vacation home in Portugal.
