It all started on Tuesday the 16th, when Renata Varandas interviewed Lula at Palácio do Planalto, in Brasilia. The interview was conducted and recorded around 9:30, and was to be broadcast in its entirety on Jornal da Record, the main news program of the station, on the air at 19:55.

During the day, the broadcaster broadcast short interview clips to encourage the public to watch. Around 13:48, the Record TV published an excerpt in which the president speaks about succession in Central Bank and the tax issue in Brazil. However, about an hour earlier, the financial market was already aware of the information, which attracted the attention of Internet users and the broadcaster itself.

A text released by the brokerage firm BGC and attributed to Capital Advice, a political analysis firm of which Renata Varandas, the interviewer, is one of three partners, confirmed the leak of the content.

In the text, the company said it had forwarded Lula’s statement to investors. The president reportedly said he still had to be convinced of the need for spending cuts and that the fiscal target did not necessarily have to be met, although he pledged to respect the fiscal framework.

Still on Tuesday 18, around 12:20, the effects of Lula’s speech – even without having been officially announced by the press – were already causing changes. The dollar began to accelerate against the real. At 12:43 the American currency began to register an increase, rising until it reached the maximum of the session, at 13:40, at 5,462 R$, an appreciation of 0.33% compared to the previous day’s close.

At 1.48pm, when Record TV This excerpt from the interview that was generating speculation in the financial sector was released, the dollar returned to negative territory. At the end of the day, the currency closed down 0.31%, at R$5,428.

According to Gabriel Vaquer, columnist for the newspaper A Folha de São Paulo, the station was concerned about the matter for two reasons. First, because of the breach of trust; second, because she was a professional at her peak. That is, in the absence of the owner, Christian LemosIt was Renata who introduced the Recording JournalThe journalist’s dismissal was made official this Thursday 18th, the broadcaster preferred not to explain the reason.

When contacted, Capital Advice said it would “not comment” on the case; BGC Liquidez, in turn, said it was investigating the facts internally. Renata Varandahas not been located as of the publication of this article. The space remains open for future positions on both sides.
