New York Times Reporter Rebate Publication by Eduardo Bolsonaro

“I wrote this article and, unfortunately, Eduardo omitted several parts in this post. Here is what we wrote,” said The New York Times reporter, sharing the full text.

Omitted stretch

The part of the article cited by journalist Jack Nicas said that, on the eve of Bolsonaro’s trial for coup attempt, “many Brazilians – and many Americans watching from afar – see this moment as a triumph of democracy.”

“Brazil, which emerged from a brutal dictatorship just 40 years ago, will have achieved something that the United States failed to: take a former president to trial for criminal accusations that he tried to cling to power after losing an election,” says Nicas’s text.

Already in the images shared by Eduardo Bolsonaro, the report begins in the next paragraph: “However, the way Brazil did this left the nation around with uncomfortable questions about the very democracy it sought to protect.”
