J.-M. Nobre-Correia wrote a critical opinion piece about the media coverage of the far right. The author warns that giving daily so much space to these movements does not constitute journalism, but rather an act of channeling their gestures and statements to the public.
The article argues that this practice ends up serving the far right as a loudspeaker, amplifying their messages without the necessary critical eye. The author questions the role of the journalistic profession in this process.
The central message of the text is an appeal for media professionals not to fool themselves about the nature of what they do when they give numerous visibility to these extremist political movements.
