Folha has temporarily suspended news coverage at the entrance of the Alvorada Palace until the Planalto Palace guarantees the safety of the press.

On Monday (25), supporters of Jair Bolsonaro harassed journalists, a practice that recurs daily at the door of the official residence.

Shortly before these verbal assaults, the president, passing by the reporters, criticized the press. "On the day that you are committed to the truth, I will speak to you again," he said.

Bolsonaro supporters outside Alvorada Palace regularly swear at journalists who await Bolsonaro's departure daily, but their behavior has become even more aggressive.
