2026 Elections: Folha and UOL debut Face to Face – 03/15/2026 – Politics

A Sheet and UOL launch this Monday (16th) Frente a Frente, a weekly interview program focusing on the 2026 elections. Presented by journalist Fábio Zanini, , and by , the program airs every Monday, at 7pm, on UOL’s YouTube and Canal UOL, broadcast on the home page Sheet.

Frente a Frente will bring an analytical approach to electoral coverage, interviewing politically relevant characters, whether candidates, party presidents, marketers or strategists.

The first guest is the president of the PL, the party of the pre-presidential candidate. Valdemar is one of the organizers of the former president’s son’s campaign.

The program’s debut comes after the release of the Datafolha survey, on March 7, which showed voting intentions for the second round. .

For Zanini, the election will be a plebiscite on the Lula government, in a repeat of the polarization between left and right that has been characteristic of Brazilian politics over the last ten years — with little room for a third way.

“In this effervescence of the election, a moment of analysis is needed, something to tie together the information, valuing didacticism. The program and the synergy between UOL and Sheet will help with this”, says the Panel editor.

Murilo Garavello, content director at UOL, says that the union between Sheet and UOL gives more weight to invitations, as well as greater distribution and impact.

“We hope to create a privileged space for interviews and debates that enlighten society and are useful for the country”, he states.

The executive editor of SheetVinicius Mota, also highlights the potential of the partnership.

“The expectation is that the program will provide a useful clash of ideas and characters that will compete for voters’ attention throughout this year and, thus, help them make and question choices. Sheet and UOL have been complementing each other for years in partnerships to cover elections and this time they will explore an unusual medium, time and format compared to the competition and with high potential to reach viewers of the most varied profiles”, he says.
