O personagem Sérgio Moro: os enquadramentos jornalísticos que compõem a construção da imagem pública do juiz federal

Abstract

Operation Lava Jato is already considered the largest investigation on money laundering in the country. In that case, we can observe the emergence of some actors who ended up gaining an extremely significant reputation, as is the case of federal judge Sérgio Moro, responsible for investigations at the 13th Federal Court. Having this reality as context, the objective of this study was to analyze the construction of the public image of Judge Sérgio Moro by Rede Globo, taking as object of analysis the main audiovisual programs of the broadcaster, Jornal Nacional e Fantástico. The method used to fulfill this objective is the frame analysis, through the "framing devices" (Gamson and Modigliani, 1989). Through this study it was verified that the public image built by the analyzed programs was centered on morality, aimed at valuing and legitimating the character in focus, and contained elements of the theoretical perspective that conceptualizes the national heroes.
