This article offers an analysis of the relationship between Veja magazine and the Workers’ Party (PT), especially in the 1989, 1994, 1998 and 2002 elections. The main hypothesis is that the magazine was coherent in its criticism of the PT’s “radicalism”, even when it was forced to accept its victory. The magazine supported the more “moderate” positions within the party,especially the one associated with Lula. Many times it differentiated the party from the politician, praising the latter and criticizing the former as “confused.” Despite this pattern, Veja has always considered the elimination the so-called radical wings as a closed issue.
