Public security specialist associated with Globo suffers attacks due to appearance and speech

Since appearing on television to analyze the mega-operation against organized crime in the communities of Rio de Janeiro, anthropologist Jacqueline Muniz has become the target of criticism and derision.

Her dyed orange hair has become a laughing stock in countless social media posts. Homophobic jokes try to disqualify her. With pejorative intent, the academic is presented as a “Globo security specialist”.

There is an explicit attempt to associate it with the progressive discourse of most of the station’s journalists and also of the presenters and commentators of GloboNews, where the coverage condemns the action which resulted in dozens of deaths, including that of four police officers.

The professor of the Department of Public Security of the Federal Fluminense University (UFF) has already been interviewed several times on the Marinho family channels. In 2018, for example, he was in the studio analyzing federal intervention in Rio.

This time it also appeared on the screens of SBT, TV Fórum and Telesur in Venezuela.

A controversial statement by Jacqueline Muniz increased hostility and irony. “The criminal has the rifle in his hand, he is easily defeated with a pistol, even with a stone to the head. As he tries to raise the rifle and fire, someone throws a stone and already knocks the boy to the ground,” he said in an interview after the mega operation.

On the channel of presenter Paulo Mathias, the teacher had a debate with the federal deputy Delegate Palumbo (MDB-SP).

He called it “Nikolas’s robot,” in reference to right-wing federal MP and media personality Nikolas Ferreira (PL-MG). The police officer accused her of having only theoretical knowledge, showed her weapon and said that Jacqueline talks about public safety without ever having dealt with crime in the streets and communities.

Paulo Mathias had to intervene when the atmosphere got ugly, with the two speakers provoking each other.

On her Twitter profile, the teacher declared that she was the target of a “campaign of hatred and violence” orchestrated by “heralds of digital cowardice”.

The column space is open to all those mentioned.
