- 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.
The Emmy Awards took place at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, featuring record-breaking wins and a star-studded guest list. Matthew Rhys made history by winning in two lead actor categories for his roles in The Beast in Me and Widow's Bay. The event was characterized by surprising sweeps and long-overdue firsts.
