The reporter specifically mentioned the bathrobe case and said that if he acted like that he would be fired for cause, which he did not. “That’s how you act when someone who’s been harassed the way people talk. And that’s not what happened. […] I put my resignation letter here, it says “no reason”. It was a joint decision,” she said.

At the end of the video, Manoel said that this would be the last time he spoke about the case and that he was excited to announce the news of his career. “I think our meeting will be much nicer from now on,” he said, in a sentence that sounded like a reference to his old work to his followers.

In a statement, the broadcaster said it would not comment on the case. “Globo does not comment on compliance cases and reiterates that it does not tolerate any type of abuse. The company maintains a Code of Ethics, which must be respected by all employees, in every area. It also has an Ombudsman ready to receive any reports of violations. Each report is carefully investigated as soon as the company becomes aware of it and the necessary measures are taken.”
