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.

Palmeiras has secured a place in the Copa do Brasil semifinals following a 0 to 0 draw against Santos on Wednesday at Vila Belmiro. The result allows Palmeiras to advance based on a 3 to 0 victory in the first leg at Nubank Parque, where Flaco López scored twice and Andreas Pereira added one goal. In the semifinals, Palmeiras will face Vasco, which eliminated Vitória with a 3 to 0 aggregate score.
During the match, Santos maintained significant possession and pressure, but struggled to create clear scoring opportunities. Neymar attempted to lead the attack but suffered a right thigh injury before halftime and was replaced by Rony. Santos coach Cuca attempted to increase offensive pressure by substituting defenders Lucas Veríssimo and Igor Vinícius for attackers Davizinho and Moisés. Palmeiras managed the game by utilizing counter attacks, with Maurício creating several opportunities that were not converted.
