- 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 draw for the second round of the Carabao Cup has been completed, featuring Nottingham Forest hosting Leeds in the only all Premier League tie of the round. Other notable fixtures include Chelsea hosting League One side Luton and Tottenham hosting Championship side Charlton. In the northern section, Newcastle will face West Brom, while Everton manager David Moyes returns to Preston North End, where he began his managerial career. In the southern section, Fulham will play AFC Wimbledon at Craven Cottage, and Brentford will travel to Birmingham City.
The matches are scheduled for the week commencing Monday, 24 August. Nine English clubs participating in European competitions will enter the tournament in the third round. The final is scheduled for 21 March at Wembley.
A scheduling conflict has emerged involving Fulham and Chelsea. Both teams are drawn at home for the Carabao Cup during the same week they are scheduled for a Premier League broadcast on Monday, 24 August. This situation creates a fixture headache because the two clubs are not supposed to play at home on the same day. Potential knock on effects include the displacement of League One matches for AFC Wimbledon and Luton, as well as other subsequent fixtures on 29 August and 1 September.
