- 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.
Every outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.
The Po River in Italy has reached record low levels. This drought is forcing farmers to consider switching their crops. According to reports, the river is experiencing violent swings between flood and drought fueled by climate change. These fluctuations are causing industries to compete for water resources that were previously taken for granted.
