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.

Three people were wounded on Sunday afternoon in a shooting in Holbaek, a city on the island of Zealand located approximately 60 to 70 kilometers west of Copenhagen. Local police stated that the victims are not in life threatening condition. The incident reportedly began when a fight broke out among a large group of people in a residential area. According to police, a small white car arrived at the scene, shots were fired, and the vehicle subsequently fled.

Two men, aged 22 and 23, were arrested on Sunday night. The 23 year old is accused of attempted murder, while the 22 year old is accused of complicity. Police are searching for a third person suspected of involvement. Another man was detained after a car collision while allegedly following the white vehicle; police believe he may have been part of the group that was targeted.

Authorities believe the shooting was a settling of scores within criminal networks. Holbaek Mayor Christina Krzyrosiak Hansen expressed her anger on social media, stating that hardened criminals should not put the safety of others at risk.
