- 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.
Hundreds of people led by a veteran political activist rallied outside the Israeli Embassy in Bangkok to protest against Israel. The event was described as a rare public protest against foreign nationals in Thailand. Alona Fisher-Kamm, the Ambassador to Thailand, played down the protests and stated that antisemitism is not part of the Thai mindset. However, the Ambassador urged cautionary action and noted that cultural differences must be addressed to prevent tourists from causing offense.
