- 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.
Russia has conducted missile tests near the Kuril Islands, a disputed archipelago located off the coasts of Russia and Japan. The Russian Ministry of Defense reported the maneuvers shortly after President Vladimir Putin visited the islands. One report characterized the missile tests as rare.
