TVI fined 50 thousand euros for report by Sandra Felgueiras about the case of the Luso-Brazilian twins

Correio da Manhã15 September 2026 at 09:52

TVI was fined by the Regulatory Authority for Media Communication (ERC) 50 thousand euros due to a report presented by journalist Sandra Felgueiras about the case of the Luso-Brazilian twins. The ERC identified seven contraventions classified as "very serious" related to this journalistic piece. The regulator's decision comes following a complaint filed against the content of the broadcast. The case of the Luso-Brazilian twins involved the dispute over medical treatment that was allegedly obtained improperly in Portugal, with Sandra Felgueiras's report covering this controversial topic.

Why this matters

The fine applies to a Portuguese media outlet for journalistic practices considered irregular, which may impact news coverage standards in Portugal. Readers following this high-profile court and media case learn that there are regulatory consequences for how it was covered. This ERC decision sets a precedent for the oversight of media activity in the country.
