In January 2025, we (the Alliance for Securing Democracy) scraped TeleSUR’s Spanish- and English-language websites via public WordPress endpoints, collecting all articles published since January 2023 in Spanish (14,758) and since January 2024 in English (6,722). From each article, we extracted listed sources, authors, and embedded tweets. While authors provided little insight, sources and embedded tweets revealed TeleSUR’s external influences. We aggregated these by counting how many articles each source or tweet author appeared in, noting potential undercounts due to spelling or formatting inconsistencies (for example, Sputnik vs. Sputnik Mundo).
