If tonight’s “Encontro” (Globo) tried to lighten up the week’s news, it ended up being another tragedy.
The program, directed by Patrícia Poeta and Manoel Soares, decided to summarize the week in a pagoda within the framework of “Cantando Notícias” created by singersongwriter Edu Krieger. However, viewers were embarrassed to see themes such as fire, arrests, violence and rape chanted for joy.
On social media, the public, who had criticized the attraction since Fátima Bernardes left, realized it was impossible to draw a smile as images from the week’s news scrolled by, accompanied by lyrics and tunes. It was about two minutes of pure embarrassment.
To give you an idea of the bad taste of the painting, singer Lexa shows up in a rolling image right at the beginning. Then, along with the happy scene of the singer, the video already shows the assassination of the city guard Marcelo Arruda, killed by a Bolsonarista at his birthday party.
The fire in a building on March 25, the price of gasoline, the murder of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and the arrest of an anesthesiologist for rape in flagrante delicto became a pagoda in “Cantando Notícias”.
“Singing news to the sound of the drum because the week was too angry,” ended the song created for the painting. It was pure shame.

Patrícia Poeta had already been criticized for the “sound” of the show during the week. Columnist Chico Barney criticized the journalist’s excitement. In “Central Splash,” he compared her to other presenters on the network, calling the presenter’s “animation” inappropriate.
