SUMMARY:

Public and private have always been areas that are difficult to define, especially in the history of the media in Brazil. Amidst the constant confusion in this field, our effort intends to contribute to the state of the art in the
debate on this frontier that hides power games and misinterpretations, a circumstance that has repercussions on the costly task of facilitating the democratization of this sector that is so important for the maintenance of
citizenship. . Realizing these disagreements, the concern that moved the thesis was to identify how the private and the public are established in the journalistic content produced by the two main Brazilian private and public television stations. We argue that democracy passes directly through journalism (GANS, 2003; PARK, 2008), recognizing its role in mediating discussions in society and its capacity for central and strategic influence in defining the interpretation that will prevail over reality. Therefore, it is also in ended to show that, in the face of the communication regulation debate, it is necessary to provide instructions in the journalistic work of the communication vehicles. To this end, our path initially sought to discuss the dimensions of what public and private means, with their historical characterizations, as well as a reflection on how communication was established between groups that perpetuate their power in different areas in our country. The research effort arrives at the methodology of analyzing the journalistic narrative (MOTTA, 2008; 2013; 2017), with the inclusion of version diversity criteria (HERMAN, 2016; GANS, 2003; PORTO, 2002), of the nightly newscasts of the two main private and public broadcasters in Brazil: Jornal Nacional (JN), from TV Globo, and Repórter Brasil (RB), from TV Brasil, in order to understand the tensions between the two communication sectors, as well as this tension reflected in the discourse newspaper of each station, regarding the coverage they did on the covid-19 pandemic in Brazil, a current topic that involves a strong political clash. The analyzes made it possible to perceive that JN maintained a positioning posture against former president Jair Bolsonaro and his determinations during the pandemic; and to identify that RB maintained a careful behavior towards the government in its coverage, as a symptom of the confusion between the public and state sectors on TV Brasil. From the findings, we seek to reflect with propositions for a journalism that serves Democracy, consolidating as pillars the understanding of the role of journalism, the understanding of the importance of narrative elements in the journalistic text, the diversity of versions, the thematic deepening, the enlightened positioning and distancing from patrimonialist influences.
