Circling the wagons
The PT’s think tank has put the position of the party on the line. According to the Periscopio bulletin put out by the Fundacao Perseu Abramo, the second round in Sao Paulo will determine ‘the brightness of the PT star’ (a reference to the party symbol) and will decide the political fight and transformation from neoliberalism to a republican paradigm over the next years.’
The think tank believes the rise of the PSDB in the first round can be attributed to an aggressive campaign and an unfavourable media. Indeed, the article suggests that the media has been taking on an almost oppositional role to the government.
Good to see that you can get lefties into government, but the suspicion of the press never goes away.
