Abstract:

Abstract In this text, we discuss the participation of the press in the deposition of President João Goulart, a 1964 coup, and the coverage of the work of the National Truth Commission carried out by the newspapers Folha de São Paulo, O Estado de São Paulo and O Globo. Our objective was to highlight the main meanings that circulated, stood out, were silenced and / or erased about the Brazilian civil-military dictatorship and the National Truth Commission in the newspapers' discourse. In this coverage, the CNV is disqualified, delegitimized and co-located under suspicion its purpose, objectives and results. We believe that the historical, political, social, cultural and economic scenario that Brazil faces has its origin, mainly, in its poorly resolved past.
