- 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.
Every source for this story reports from United States.
The United States has begun deporting immigrants to Liberia as part of a pact for the West African nation to accept up to 1,200 non Liberians over the next year. A plane carrying an initial group of deportees landed Thursday at Roberts International Airport, located approximately 40 miles east of Monrovia, according to a spokesman for the Liberian government. This initiative is part of a broader plan by the Trump administration to send migrants to third party countries.
