Talk:Folha de S. Paulo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I made the alteration of the political positions of the paper because I believe Folha de S. Paulo is not neutral at all and shows no center-left positions in its editorials. For instance, the paper recently published an article arguing that the country should rise its oil prices, even though it was already very close to autonomy and had no need to do so, in order to assure a fair competition with private business (when it would cost less for the Brazilian economy to subsidize the few private company of the oil business). That is certainly a neoliberal position, as is the paper's defence of the idea of "choque de gestão", one of the variations of the minimum state. In its editorial, Folha de S. Paulo usually takes on a liberal stance in social issues, such as abortion, gay rights etc., but it defends the same economic policies the Fiesp (Federação das indústrias do estado de São Paulo - the most important association of businessmen in Brazil). It may be in favour of development and even progressist, but it's not center-left, as it favours capital in stead of labour. - Manuel

[edit] So what...

...does "Folha" mean anyway? The whole thing comes out to "[...] of Sao Paulo". 68.39.174.238 (talk) 17:20, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

"Folha" literally means "paper" in Portuguese. --Nadir D Steinmetz 15:51, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
