- 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 outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.
Influencer Virginia Fonseca celebrated the fifth anniversary of her cosmetics brand, WePink, with a gala event in Sao Paulo attended by approximately 550 guests. The celebration featured musical performances by Matuê, Mari Fernandez, and Léo Foguete, as well as a special appearance by Grupo Chocolate. The venue was decorated in the brand's signature pink, fuchsia, and magenta tones, with drinks named after the company's fragrances.
Before the event began, Fonseca became trapped in an elevator with her partners, Samara Pink and Thiago Stabile. She recorded the incident on social media, stating that she felt she was going to feel sick and noting that the elevator had jammed. Although the group was eventually rescued, the delay caused Fonseca to miss part of the musical programming.
Several guests commented on the event's dress code, which requested that attendees wear pink. While guests followed the theme, Fonseca wore a long, transparent black dress. This choice prompted comments from Rico Melquiades and Carlinhos Maia, the latter of whom expressed his dislike for themed parties after realizing he owned no pink clothing.
Additional tension occurred when influencer Rainha Matos left the party in tears. Matos claimed on social media that a prominent influencer had been rude to her during a conversation regarding her gossip page and the negative content she posts about him.
