The capture of the presenter on a beach generates further speculation on the conflict with the colleague of ‘Encontro’
A behind-the-scenes issue can’t overshadow a TV show. This is exactly what happens with Patrícia Poeta and Manoel Soares in “Encontro”.
True or not, the feud has become an endless soap opera. Almost every week the Internet rings with a statement, a gesture, a look, something that reinforces the impression that they are working together against their will.
Target of criticism for alleged contempt for his fellow student, Poeta has already spoken out a few times. Last week, he said he apologized to Manoel after the backlash for interrupting and crossing in front of him on stage.
In the next issue, she greeted him effusively. Attempt at peace? Irony? Authentic gesture? Opinions were divided on the internet. It’s hard to believe that everything is fine between the two.
As much as she denies the discomfort of sharing the space with the journalist, Patrícia doesn’t convince part of the public and the press. Her perception prevails that she would like to lead the attraction bearing her name on her own.
On Friday (7), photos of the presenter circulating on a Rio beach, taken by paparazzi Victor Chapetta, went viral. “Visibly shaken”, in the description of the AgNews photo agency. Relentless, the web wondered if the arrest would serve to generate empathy and, therefore, reduce its unpopularity.
Manoel’s posture fuels the controversy. Every time a new episode of alleged friction emerges on the air, he posts somewhat cryptic messages with multiple possibilities for interpretation.
It seems to send a message: I can’t say exactly what I would like because I’m the weakest link and I want to keep my job. Most see him as a ‘victim’. Others begin to deduce that he is taking advantage of the situation.
The rise of her ex-husband, Amauri Soares, to the top executive position at Globo has begun to weigh against Patrícia. The comment on the web and in the press groups on WhatsApp is that now the presenter can do what she wants because she would have the approval of her son’s father. Macho and defamatory vision, it should be noted.
The application of the racial aspect in favor of Manoel also raises questions. There are those who believe that he has become ‘untouchable’ since removing him from the program would be seen as a racist attitude by the broadcaster’s management and would worsen Poet’s image.
Who is right? Who’s wrong?
One truth is indisputable: Globo is wrong – and it is making a big mistake – to allow this unfortunate situation to continue. He lacks a steady hand to definitively resolve the conflict.
Whoever loses the most is the Encontro, worn out by the controversies. Instead of paying attention to agendas, audiences and television critics monitor presenters in the hopes of detecting something off to skew perceptions of animosity.
How long will the issuer allow this doubt to prevail?
Historically, Globo has had a hard time dealing with relationship crises on camera. Minimizes cumulative damage by choosing to wait for the dust to settle. Meanwhile, the environment degrades further.
In July, the ‘Encounter’ with Poet and Manoel will complete 1 year. The good moments are in the shadow of the controversy that started right at the premiere, when it was understood that the journalist would be number 2, contrary to what the mistaken campaign to relaunch the attraction suggested.
What started out badly remains in error. Only transparency from all parties involved will result in a resolution of the case.
