Brasil de Fato (English: Brazil de facto) is a Brazilian online newspaper and a radio agency, in addition to having regional newspapers in Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Paraná and Pernambuco.[1]

## History

[edit]

Launched on January 25, 2003, on the World Social Forum of 2003[2] in Porto Alegre by social movement organizations like the Landless Workers' Movement, Via Campesina, and Pastoral Care Social Commission, it circulated for more than ten years with a national weekly print version. It was founded by Alípio Freire. Brasil de Fato is funded by groups with alleged ties to Neville Roy Singham.[3]

The newspaper, of national circulation, gathers left-wing journalists, writers, commentators, and other national and international intellectuals, who joined to form Brasil de Fato after they realized the need to a democratization of the press. It intends the debate of ideas and the analysis of facts from the standpoint of the need for social change in the country.
