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.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has signed two executive orders ahead of the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks. The first order designates September 11 as a Day of Remembrance and Service, which includes a moment of silence and encourages city agencies to hold memorial ceremonies and educational programming. The second order overhauls the city's emergency continuity plans for the first time since 2007 and creates a new interagency team to coordinate response and continuity planning to strengthen security measures. Mamdani stated that the orders demonstrate a commitment to protect New Yorkers and ensure government preparedness. Fire Department Commissioner Lillian Bonsignore added that the greatest tribute to the victims is to continue serving others with compassion and courage. The announcement comes as Mamdani, the city's first Muslim mayor, faces a petition with over 98,000 signatures calling for his exclusion from 9/11 commemorative events. The petition and former Republican Governor George Pataki have criticized the mayor, with some alleging he supports individuals who are dismissive of American institutions. Conversely, City Council Speaker Julie Menin and members of the organization September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows have condemned these efforts as inappropriate and Islamophobic.
