Controversy

Rede Globo has and has had for many years by far the biggest number of viewers in Brazil, thus also having the power to influence election results, especially with the use of it's news broadcasting in manner that is favorable to its proprietors' preferred candidates. Most notoriously, in 1989, it broadcast an edited version of the last debate between Fernando Collor de Mello, whom it openly favored, and Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (current President - 2003/2007), just before election day in a manner that the former received more air time and had more favorable segments of the debate shown.

In 1993 Channel Four made a documentary Beyond Citizen Kane about the power and influence of the network in Brazil. The Marinho family bought the national rights to the documentary, and by refusing to license it to other broadcasters or release it on video, curtailed its distribution in Brazil.
