Jornalismo independente

Abstract

Journalist Sérgio de Souza reports, briefly, on his experience at magazine Realidade, a publication of the late 60's - an example of independent journalism, deep and critical - and, currently at magazine Caros Amigos, a monthly publication he edits. The article deals with the importance of having a press that is capable of articulating itself independently from the Executive, Legislative and Judicial powers, as well as from the purely market-oriented interests. The article stresses that what the country loses with the lack of a leftist press and it also covers Souza's projects for the future with the launching of Caros Amigos Reportagem, bringing back the pleasure of reading a well-written report.
