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.

Tadej Pogacar won stage six of the Vuelta a España on Thursday, marking his third stage victory of the race. The Slovenian cyclist outsprinted Enric Mas to take the win in Castellón de la Plana, extending his overall lead in the general classification to 3 minutes and 34 seconds over Mas. The stage featured a challenging climb up Puerto El Bartolo that included a gravel section. During the descent, Pogacar experienced a scare when he misjudged a corner and briefly went off the road, though he recovered quickly to remain with Mas.
While the result was a victory for Pogacar, center left sources framed the event as a moment where Mas humanized the Slovenian by challenging him on the ascent. In contrast, a center right source framed the victory as evidence that Pogacar continues to compete in his own league.
Other notable developments included Ramses Debruyne finishing third, 46 seconds behind the leaders. Josh Tarling of Netcompany Ineos abandoned the race with approximately 120 kilometers remaining. The riders will next travel 149.8 kilometers from Vall d'Alba to Aramon Valdelinares for a first category summit finish.
