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.

Every outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.

Novo Nordisk is strengthening its position in the weight loss market with its new Wegovy pill. This development allows the company to maintain its lead against Eli Lilly, which recently launched Foundayo. Both companies continue to compete intensely in the battle over obesity treatments.
