- 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.
Norway's wealth fund holds a $1.2 billion stake in SpaceX. The fund, which invests revenues from the Norwegian state's oil and gas production, is the world's largest single investor and owns an average of 1.5% of all listed companies globally. In total, the fund is invested in approximately 7,200 companies worldwide, as well as property and renewable projects. One report notes that the stake in SpaceX is modest when compared to other tech stocks held by the fund.
