Bolsonaro, the current head of state who is still without a party, this Tuesday morning, responded to journalists in a very insensitive way. Check out all the information about this episode below.
As published in the press this morning: he ordered reporters to shut up this Tuesday morning (5) when he was asked about the recent changes in the Federal Police. Bolsonaro even attacked Folha, calling the newspaper a “scoundrel”, “scoundrel” and “liar”.
In a statement in the morning in front of the Alvorada Palace, Bolsonaro showed an image that reproduced the headline of the printed edition of Folha this Tuesday and, referring to the headline “New PF director takes over and accepts Bolsonaro’s request”, said that did not interfere with the corporation.
Bolsonaro continues to treat the press rudely.
Very emphatically, the President of the Republic, Jair Messias Bolsonaro, spoke with his supporters:
“What a scoundrel press Folha de S.Paulo is. Canalha is a compliment for Folha de S.Paulo. The current superintendent of Rio de Janeiro, who [former minister Sergio] Moro said I want to change for family reasons.”
He continued: “There are no relatives of mine investigated by the Federal Police, neither me nor my children, zero. A lie that the press replicates all the time, saying that my children want to change the superintendent [of the PF in Rio]”, added the president.
As we noticed, during his speech, Bolsonaro was asked by journalists if he had asked for a change in the PF superintendence in Rio. That's when he told the professionals to shut up.
Read the president's speech in full:
“Shut up, I didn't ask anything”, he replied to a first question, made by a reporter from O Estado de S. Paulo. 🇧🇷Folha de S.Paulo, a rogue and lying newspaper”. Then questioned by Sheet, the president shouted again: “shut up, shut up”.
Wassup what y'all think?
Is this really how the president should treat journalism professionals in Brazil? Leave your comment!
