| Resumo: | This dissertation analyzes the racial representation in TV journalism based on the study of three
Brazilian states: Bahia, which has the largest black population in the country; Santa Catarina,
which has the largest white population in the country; and Mato Grosso do Sul, which has an
equivalent proportion of black, brown, and white people. According to the 2016 National
Continuous Household Sample Survey, released by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and
Statistics (IBGE), 54.9% of the Brazilian population is composed of black people, arousing the
reflection of the following questions: in a country mainly constituted by black and white people,
is it possible to verify the preponderant color or race profile among the professionals who work
in front of the cameras on the television news in the surveyed states? Does whiteness impose
itself on television news to the point of reflecting inequalities and privileges in relation to the
color or race of TV journalists? Is it possible to verify the perception of TV journalists about
practices of prejudice and racial discrimination in their work environment? The methodology
of this research comprises a qualitative and quantitative assessment, based on structured
interviews, and an image analysis, carried out from the observation of both television news and
Instagram. The theoretical foundations rely on authors such as Bento (2019, 2002), Cardoso
(2008, 2010, 2017, 2020), Carrera (2020), Kilomba (2019), and Sodré (1999, 2014, 2022), who
bring a discussion about race; in addition to Martín-Barbero (2013) and Mattos (2010), who
address aspects related to television and TV news. Based on the accounts of the interviewees,
the results of the research indicate that whiteness, even when it is not predominantly represented
in front of the cameras in TV journalism, imposes itself in a racist manner in the backstage,
since black journalists interviewed report episodes of racial discrimination. From the
testimonies, it was also possible to verify that most of the white people interviewed do not have
a perception of prejudice and racial discrimination practices in the work environment. It is
expected that the result of this research might help to foster the debate on racial representation
in Brazilian journalism. |
