Read the full press release:
Regarding the Klara Castanho episode, we were wrong. METRÓPOLES should not have allowed the columnist Leo Dias, who publishes his articles on the portal, to provide details on the sad case involving a woman in extreme vulnerability. There is no justification for supporting the public interest argument in knowing the details of a story in which the only interested parties are the victim and her family. And, in this case, Justice and the Public Prosecutor, who intervened to help Klara in the process of adopting the child.
In relation to Klara Castanho, we practice very bad journalism. It is not an excuse. But the circumstances in this episode helped make the mistake take time to correct. The story aired around 9pm and was removed two hours later. Like the other METRÓPOLES columnists, Leo Dias has the autonomy to publish his information. Although the portal reserves that the content of the editorialists does not necessarily reflect the position of the vehicle, it is clear that, if we publish the editorialist on our page, we are responsible for the content transmitted.
In a vehicle that publishes around 400 pieces of content per day, errors can unfortunately occur. Both information and evaluation. And, in general, we are ready to do whatever it takes to correct any misunderstandings. This post took place on Saturday evening, at the end of the day, when there were very few colleagues in the editorial office. We did not immediately notice that the news had been published by the editorialist’s staff. This does not exempt the METRÓPOLES team from any blame. We all make mistakes.
And for that, we apologize to Klara. She doesn’t deserve judgment. You don’t deserve visibility. It deserves acceptance, respect and empathy from all of us. The sad episode will serve as a lesson for us to make a thorough evaluation of the procedures in our routines. To all readers, a respectful apology.
