Meta-journalism and the obscene in João do Rio

Modern journalism originating from the United States and Europe is implemented in Brazil in the first decade of the twentieth century, and the national press proposes reflections about journalistic practices in the country in different textual productions, even before the role of the ombudsman is established, in a movement this article calls meta-journalism. This article discusses transformations in the mediatic semiosphere that underpin reflections on social memory and on the history of Brazilian journalism, based on an analysis of articles published by the newspaper Gazeta Mercantil and of texts authored by João do Rio.
