Tobacco is largely responsible for the economy of the Rio Pardo Valley, in Rio Grande do Sul. Faced with this premise, we aim to verify how the most expressive newspaper in this region - Gazeta do Sul - discursivizes COP-8, which proposes to debate the control of this crop. Through the lens of Discourse Analysis, particularly the French branch, we analyzed the coverage of COP-8, held in Switzerland in 2018, and tried to identify the way that this subject is equalized in this context. In the end, we noticed that victimism prevails as an almost unisonous meaning in the reports. It was observed that the publication makes use of such a discursive strategy in order to ensure an imagined socioeconomic stability, while erasing antagonistic relations that compete with regard to the issue of tobacco.
