- 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.

Mumbai police arrested a local businessman and his bodyguard on Monday after the man allegedly attempted to gain entry to the Jio World Plaza using a forged identity card. The businessman, identified as Rohan Parekh, claimed to be an official from the Prime Minister's Office. His bodyguard, an ex-serviceman, was found to be carrying a licensed firearm. The incident occurred at the Bandra Kurla Complex, which is in the same compound as the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre where Prime Minister Narendra Modi was scheduled to attend the Global Fintech Fest the following day. Police arrested the pair under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for impersonating a public servant and unlawful entry armed with a weapon. Both individuals have been remanded to police custody until September 11. Investigators stated that they found no link between the men's actions and the Prime Minister's event.
