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 source for this story reports from Brazil.
Every outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.
Santos has advanced to the quarterfinals of the Copa Sul-Americana following a 0 to 0 draw against Macará on Thursday in Ambato, Ecuador. The result secured their progression based on the advantage built during the first leg at Vila Belmiro. In the next round, Santos will face Atlético MG, which advanced after eliminating Red Bull Bragantino.
Coach Cuca rested several key players for the match, including Neymar and Gabigol. Other players spared included Igor Vinicius and Álvaro Barreal. Goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão was a standout performer for Santos, making several critical saves to maintain the scoreless draw. The decision to rotate the squad comes as Santos currently sits 14th in the Brazilian Championship table with 25 points, facing a match against Mirassol this Sunday.
Other results in the competition include Vasco securing a 4 to 1 victory over Olimpia, and São Paulo advancing past Bolívar with a 4 to 2 aggregate score. The first leg of the quarterfinals is scheduled to take place between September 8 and 10, with the return matches following from September 15 to 17.
