O Estado de S. Paulo · May 2026

• reports Lula's actions and statements factually
• includes criticism from opponents without endorsement
• highlights both policy wins and setbacks
• uses neutral attribution verbs (diz, anuncia, quer)

Coverage is largely factual and balanced, mixing positive policy announcements (taxa das blusinhas, Desenrola) with negative events (veto overridden, criticism from Zema, association with Joesley Batista). No consistent evaluative language toward Lula; the outlet does not adopt a clear positive or negative stance.

• Trump as subject of factual actions and statements
• Quotes Trump directly without evaluative commentary
• Occasional critical framing via context (e.g., 'ameaça', 'ataque')
• Mixed selection: includes both Trump's initiatives and opposition to him

Coverage is largely neutral and factual, quoting Trump's statements and reporting his actions without consistent editorial slant. However, some headlines (e.g., #2, #6) frame Trump's attacks on reporters negatively, and #22 reports a measure to force him to end a war, which implies criticism. Overall, the outlet does not adopt a clear positive or negative stance toward Trump; it treats him as a newsmaker whose actions and words are reported with minimal evaluative language.

• Trump as primary actor in headlines
• Quotes Trump without evaluative adjectives
• Mix of policy actions and controversies
• Occasional critical framing via third-party quotes

The outlet reports Trump's actions and statements neutrally, but includes critical third-party voices (e.g., Serjão Foguetes on OVNIs, Dan Wang on US-China). No consistent positive or negative editorial stance toward the US as a country; coverage is factual and event-driven.

• factual reporting of government actions and political events
• balanced coverage of both Lula and Bolsonaro figures
• occasional critical framing of government policies and political scandals

The outlet covers both Lula and Bolsonaro figures with a mix of neutral reporting and critical scrutiny, without a consistent positive or negative stance toward the country BR as an entity. The coverage includes government actions, political scandals, and economic policies, but does not systematically praise or delegitimize Brazil.

• foregrounding of scandal involvement
• use of distancing and evaluative framing
• highlighting political damage and electoral risk
• quoting allies expressing doubt or pressure

The outlet does not use overtly hostile or delegitimising language, but consistently selects and frames stories that expose Flávio Bolsonaro's entanglement in the Master scandal, his political vulnerability, and criticism from allies. The tone is investigative and skeptical, not neutral or favourable.
