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.

Meteorological agencies across several countries have issued warnings and forecasts for Saturday, September 5, highlighting a variety of extreme conditions including high winds, snowfall, and intense heat. In Argentina, the Servicio Meteorológico Nacional issued a yellow alert for winds, snowfall, and Zonda winds. Strong winds with gusts potentially exceeding 90 km/h are expected in provinces such as Salta, Jujuy, Catamarca, La Rioja, La Pampa, Río Negro, Chubut, and southern Buenos Aires. Additionally, moderate to strong snowfall with accumulations between 15 and 30 centimeters is forecast for southern Mendoza and Neuquén. In Chile, technical agencies including Senapred and the Dirección Meteorológica de Chile are coordinating preventive measures for the Biobío and Los Ríos regions due to puelche winds with gusts reaching up to 100 km/h. Low temperatures as low as -3 degrees Celsius are also expected in the center south of the country. In Mexico, forecasts vary by region. Monterrey and Mazatlán both expect a 55 percent probability of rain with maximum temperatures around 33.9 degrees Celsius. Mexico City is forecast to have a 49 percent probability of rain with a high of 26.1 degrees Celsius. In other regions, Zaragoza, Spain, is expected to be dry with a maximum temperature of 39.4 degrees Celsius. In Venezuela, Valencia is forecast to have light rains and a high of 29 degrees Celsius. Several reports from center right outlets emphasize the broader context of climate change and global warming, noting that these factors have made meteorological monitoring more urgent for public policy and disaster risk reduction.
