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.

Michelle Dayana Henao, a six year old girl who disappeared on August 24, was found dead on August 31 in a rural area of Buriticá, Antioquia. The Governor of Antioquia, Andrés Julián Rendón, confirmed the discovery in the La Aguacatala sector, which is located approximately thirty minutes from the Cristo Rey neighborhood where the child was last seen. Security camera footage showed the girl jumping a wall to leave her home and crossing a nearby orchard before her trail went cold.
Search efforts involved the Police, Firefighters, Red Cross, and the Government of Antioquia, utilizing K9 units and thermal detection drones. The Personería of Buriticá reported that Michelle Dayana had autism and suffered from recurrent epilepsy attacks that caused her to become disoriented. According to this source, she had disappeared six times previously but was always found within hours.
The government of Antioquia had offered a reward of 50 million pesos for information regarding her whereabouts or the individuals responsible for her disappearance. Governor Rendón stated that authorities are evaluating the possibility of third party involvement and must determine if there are responsible parties to be held accountable.
