Yes. So if the label isn't limited to political outlets, npub1l8km8cc8v80wldnkyx8dtc67c5400huqw9f0upemwedqf66e43zqplcenm (npub1l8k…cenm) and npub15r8n24e3nrdua3xz3fa78ava048phas0kr97rml5r5vl9p365l9s7z9qtd (npub15r8…9qtd) should be listed as government funded too.
But I wonder what folks' barometer is for what should and shouldn't be listed as "government-funded". Is there a certain percentage of funding that must be met before it qualifies? Must it be a news/opinion source? An objective standard would be helpful here.
