The 3rd largest public TV in Brazil, Rede Minas, founded by Tancredo Neves in 1984 in Minas Gerais is the head of a network with more than 50 affiliated educational televisions, whose programming is focused on education and citizenship. When confinement started in the middle of March 2020, schools had to be closed because of the risks of contagion and spread of COVID-19, the Minas Gerais State Department of Education began to develop a series of programs for public school students did not have great losses due to quarantine. Thus, in May, the first ‘Se Liga na Educação’ program was aired. Therefore, we intend to promote some discussions on the possible citizen and inclusive practices of television, taking Rede Minas as an example, through a bibliographic review of the area, since, according to IBGE, 97.2% of homes in Brazil have television. These discussions will be linked to the content analysis that we will make of a period - to be determined - of the Se Liga na Educação program. There is yet another important factor that comes into our discussion, which has its echo produced by the observation of Juan Carlos Tedesco (2001) when he declares that “the school has a very unequal struggle with the media, accused of being one of the responsible elements for the moral deviations of childhood and youth ”(TEDESCO, 2001, p. 60). In this way, televisions can occupy both the role of citizenship builders and societal shapers, as well as perversive and enticing individuals in all social strata. All of this through its programming, which we probably have not given due attention to.
