Abstract

The Brazilian journalism presents several syndromes that influence the quality of environmental coverage
as the sensationalism; the almost exclusive use of authorities as sources; or the fragmentation of the
approach because of its segmentation in different sections. The analysis of the journalistic coverage in
the cities of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo demonstrates that the environmental news occupies a good
space in the main newspapers, with important variations in terms of subjects and perspective.
