Movimentos sociais no telejornalismo: uma análise histórica da cobertura da Rede Globo e de suas emissoras afiliadas (2012-2022)

Abstract

The main objective of this study was to analyze television news reports on topics related to social movements. These reports were produced and broadcast by Rede Globo news programs and its affiliates between 2012 and 2022 and are available on the Globoplay streaming platform. The material was cataloged in an analytical framework, the main objective of which is to organize the data obtained in this process. After a filtering process, 60 reports were selected for this study, totaling approximately 2 hours and 33 minutes. The reports were divided into analysis categories: Trade Union Action, Articulated Collective Actions, Demonstrations of Power, Housing Movements, Feminist, racial, or Indigenous Movements, Agrarian Reform, and Social Vulnerability. I justify the selection of these categories based on the themes highlighted in the reports. Thus, it was possible to understand how the elements that constitute a report are used by the media to promote the legitimization or marginalization of social movements. In many cases, the subject matter remains the backdrop of the report, with the focus being on the "disruption" caused by the protests and their impact on society, with the presence of "dramatization" and "spectacle."
