The Bolsonaro government uses stock photos as if they were of Brazilians.
After using photos from Dilma's government as if they were recent to promote the São Francisco River diversion project, the Secom campaign is using stock photos as if they were of ordinary Brazilians calling the president (video).
247 - On the same day that the revelation came to light that Jair Bolsonaro's government used old photos. Regarding the works on the São Francisco River diversion project, falsely claiming they were about the current situation and attributing them to his government, another campaign by Secom (Secretariat of Communication) proved to be completely fake.
The advertisement, about construction projects in the Northeast – a region where Bolsonaro has little electoral support and lost the elections in every state – uses stock photos (such as Dreams Time and iStock, widely used by advertisers) as if they were of ordinary Brazilians, simulating a phone conversation with Bolsonaro.
The photos of "Dona Maria Eulina," who in the video says she's from Ceará, and "Francisco Valmar," from Rio Grande do Norte, appeared in image banks and had even been used before by the government, in a campaign launched in March by Secom, for example, "Brazil Cannot Stop," as a report from [source name] recalls. site B9.
