- A hatched block means the outlet is affiliated with, or controlled by, a state.
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.

Two people died and four others were seriously injured after a car crashed into a group of pedestrians in Doncaster on Sunday. South Yorkshire Police reported that the incident occurred around 11:00 BST on White Rose Way, between Carriage Drive and Middle Bank Roundabout. A black Mitsubishi L200 hit pedestrians before colliding with a black Audi and a silver BMW on the opposite carriageway. Two pedestrians were pronounced dead at the scene, while four others were taken to the hospital with serious injuries. The driver of the Mitsubishi, a 30 year old man, was arrested on suspicion of two counts of causing death by dangerous driving, two counts of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, and driving while unfit. He has since been released on bail. Police are currently working to identify and inform the families of the deceased. Authorities are appealing for witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage to contact South Yorkshire Police.
