The central aim of this essay is to investigate how was set the anti-communist speech of the political editorials and columns of O Jornal from 1935 and 1937. The fourth decade of the twentieth century was a period outlined by the increasing growth of the authoritarian government of Getúlio Vargas, culminating with the outset of the Estado Novo in November of 1937. It is aimed, throughout the analysis of the political editorials and columns of the paper, to understand the main themes used by the writers in the creation of an evil image of communism and its supporters, and how the paper legitimated the reinforcement actions of Getúlio Vargas. It is also aimed to learn the beginning of the political myth of the communist conspiracy and of the savior seen in Getúlio Vargas and of the deconstruction of the myth of the Cavalheiro da Esperança perceived in the person of Luiz Carlos Prestes, the most important communist leader of the time. It is also aimed to understand the historical moment of the Brazilian press in the 20 s and 30 s, studying specifically the historical trajectory of O Jornal and the thought of its owner, Mr. Assis Chateaubriand.
