Folha readers disapprove of Patrícia Campos Mello's attack on the professional journalism of Brasil 247 in order to favor Bolsonaro.
The journalist's report accused left-wing media outlets of using disinformation against Jair Bolsonaro, but Folha's readers disliked the commissioned article.
247 - One of the reporter from journalist Patrícia Campos Mello, in which she attacks left-wing media outlets, especially Brasil 247, which It has one of the best professional journalism teams in Brazil.The article, featuring renowned and award-winning journalists, outraged readers of Folha de S. Paulo itself. In her report, Patrícia associates progressive media with the idea of disinformation, without presenting any concrete evidence. Immediately, 247 reacted, denouncing the intention to favor Jair Bolsonaro.
Patricia's report was so extravagant that it greatly bothered Folha's readers, who made several comments. critical comments about the journalist"The headline says that left-wing websites are targeting Bolsonaro with disinformation, but the only example of disinformation is from February. Is that news? With this level of journalism, what right does Folha have to judge other media outlets? Furthermore, without even getting into the newspaper's own positioning, has Folha ever referred to Estadão as a right-wing newspaper? Or is someone going to try to say that's not what it is?", questioned Gustavo Carvalho. "What a lack of things to write about," added Márcio Scrignoli. "Patrícia, you're mixing apples and oranges. The pro-Bolsonaro websites are an industry of lies," pointed out Antônio Carlos de Paula. "Poor Bolsonaro. Being attacked by lying journalists. Him, of all people, so correct, respectful and ethical," wrote Abel Nogueira.
The perplexity surrounding Patrícia's text was so great that there isn't a single favorable comment about her report. "Did you go too far, Patrícia? Left-wing websites are no match for Bolsonaro's websites. The ease with which Bolsonaro lies on national television shows, even to those who refuse to see the obvious, that lying is culture, a way of life, for him and his followers. You messed up with 247, it was unbelievable! Wouldn't it be interesting if you brought up the pseudo-journalistic news that should have been investigated by FSP, Globo, etc., that led to the coup and Lula's imprisonment? Disappointment in you," concluded Rachel Matos. "Such is the disproportion of the far-right fake news websites that something strange hangs in the air. It seems the author wants to level everything. We cannot forget that those who spread all kinds of lies about Lava Jato, without applying filters and fact-checking, were our glorious press, contributing to putting a fascist in power," noted JC Souza. "Wow, Folha de São Paulo, ever since it was orphaned by the beloved PSDB, has been a bit lost. It criticizes Bolsonaro, but since it hopes that Petrobras will be handed over to private initiative by this government, it occasionally offers some encouragement. You all like facts and evidence so much, what evidence was there for Dilma's impeachment? What evidence put Lula in prison for more than 500 days? And you reported it all as if it were true," said Paulo Inácio.
