Event news as the face of an ideology of authoritarian solution: the political crisis in the 1964 coup in Brazil according to the Argentinian Clarin newspaper

Abstract

This article analyzes the way in which the Argentinian Clarin newspaper reported/represented the 1964 civil-military coup in Brazil as news/event, seeking to emphasize how the journalistic discourse, by mobilizing images and recurring interpretations, possibly served as an important component of an ideology of the authoritarian solution across the political and institutional crisis that grew in the region since at least the 1950s.
