Abstract

The article aims to present, to compare and to discuss frames mobilized by editorials of two Brazilian newspapers, Folha de S. Paulo and O Estado de S. Paulo, when they are referring to Brazilian Congress. Using Frame Analysis, we identify that the publications activate two frames more frequently: “Conflicts between government and its allies in Congress and between government and Congress in general”; “Measures that should be taken to improve Brazilian economy”. We found differences among the other frames the newspapers mobilized, what indicates that their priorities sometimes differ. The editorials tend to focus on political contests and to present political agents with no concerns towards public interests, but there is also discussion pertinent to substantial issues.
