Luigi Marattin responded to Corrado Formigli, who in the Corriere had described as "an embarrassing confusion" what the deputy said on Piazzapulita. Marattin mentioned that he has been reading investigative journalism and historical studies on conflicts for decades and cited Il Legionario, a book about Giustino De Vuono, arguing that its author documented the presented theses. Marattin accused the documentary Naza of making unfounded accusations. He cited the bombing which, according to the mentioned reconstruction, would have killed 500 civilians, stating that no evidence of either the attack or the death toll had been presented. He argued that the only source was Hamas's word, treated as truth, while Israeli accounts were dismissed as propaganda. He added that he had said on air that, in wartime, he did not consider the reports of the involved parties reliable and preferred those from independent observers. For this reason, he described Israel's decision not to allow foreign journalists into Gaza, even at their own risk, as a mistake. Marattin accused Formigli of not listening to this point and of silencing dissenters, imposing his own opinion. Finally, he wrote that he would have liked to read a "mea culpa" from the host for his statements about Israeli children on October 7. #giornalismodinchiesta #storia #media (translated)

Tsuki found it "sensational" that the magazine Veja had directly accused Lula's campaign of spreading false news against the publication. He then summarized the arguments from a response by the magazine regarding its report about Vorcaro. According to the text from Veja reproduced by Tsuki, Vorcaro's lawyer would have confirmed the authenticity of the audio, and the magazine stated that it removed five short statements — 15 seconds in total — to protect the source. The publication also clarified that it did not say that the audio was included in the plea bargain nor that the confession was made to the Federal Police. Regarding the PGR, the magazine claimed that Vorcaro, through his lawyers, presented an account regarding the funding of a documentary about Lula and promised to deliver documents if the plea bargain was accepted, which did not happen. Tsuki also stated that some outlets were using "jurists" in their headlines to conceal, according to his assessment, that the coordination of Lula's presidential campaign was spreading false news against Veja's cover story. #PolíticaBR #FakeNews #Eleições2022 (translated)

Xico Graziano stated that a report by the magazine VEJA about supposed payments linked to Lula had provoked a reaction within the PT. According to him, PT members denied the accusations, said there was no evidence, and echoed a contestation from the Federal Police. In summarizing the report, Graziano said that banker Vorcaro reported having negotiated with João Vaccari Neto, former treasurer of the PT, payments to obtain access to pension funds for federal employees. According to the excerpt of the article he shared, it would amount to R$ 30 million in cash destined for the Lula Institute to fund a documentary about Lula abroad, in addition to another undisclosed amount paid directly to the institute, managed by Paulo Okamotto. Graziano added that Vorcaro had provided details to the Attorney General's Office (PGR), which did not proceed with the case as it deemed there was insufficient evidence. The banker’s defense, according to the account reproduced by the author, mentioned WhatsApp messages and records of withdrawals and deliveries of money. Graziano expressed belief that VEJA would not publish the report without confidence in the material and assessed that the published piece would merely be a preview of new revelations. He considered the story credible, although there might not be definitive proof, and compared the case to the Atibaia site, which, according to him, was not registered in Lula's name in the registry office. In Graziano's view, the report would harm the PT and Lula's campaign, discouraging voters and causing some to give up on voting. He stated that the case would reduce Lula's chances of reversing a defeat in the first round. #Lula #Petismo #VEJA (translated)

Leandro Ruschel shared the account of a reporter from Veja about alleged dealings of Banco Master with members of the PT and fund managers. According to the material cited by the journalist, Daniel Vorcaro's partner contacted Jaques Wagner, then leader of Lula's government in the Senate, to arrange a meeting with João Vaccari Neto, the party's former treasurer. After the meeting, the reporter stated, the bank would have organized fundraising with funds whose presidents had been appointed by Vaccari and by names from the PT and appointed or endorsed by Lula. The account indicated that, near the end of the first semester of 2024, Banco Master obtained authorization from the federal government to operate and raise funds from the funds. Vorcaro would have reached out to operators linked to members of the government, including Alexandre Padilha, then Minister of Institutional Relations, with the goal of raising R$ 10 billion from the funds. In exchange, he allegedly agreed to pay the PT 10% of the total raised, according to the reporter. According to the account, Vaccari demanded R$ 30 million in cash from Augusto Lima to finance a documentary about Lula that Oliver Stone was producing in the United States. Vorcaro reportedly said that the money was delivered through messengers and PT operators. The reporter also stated that Vorcaro mentioned payments to the Instituto Lula, coordinated with Paulo Okamotto, a friend of the president and manager of the institution. #Política #Corrupção #Lula (translated)
