Brazil: Death of an Old and Brave Newspaper · Global Voices
Raphael Tsavkko Garcia

Brizola Neto says that one of the oldest Brazilian newspapers, Jornal do Brasil (JB) will cease its printed version and will only run online. The blogger adds that the almost-120-years-old newspaper was a brave opponent to the Brazilian dictatorship (1964-1985) and its disappearance will leave a gap in Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil and in democracy.
