O Globo ( Portuguese pronunciation [ u ˈɡlobu ] Portuguese Der Globus ) is a nationally conservative Brazilian daily newspaper that is published in Rio de Janeiro .
O Globo is published by the largest publisher in Latin America , Editora Globo, and is the newspaper flagship of the media group Grupo Globo . The journalist Irineu Marinho laid the cornerstone of the success story in 1925 when he founded the newspaper. His eldest son Roberto Marinho built the company into an empire. Today the paper is run by his grandson Roberto Irineu Marinho , who also owns Rede Globo , the largest Latin American TV network. O Globo is considered to be the most influential newspaper in the country.
The layout of the newspaper was redesigned in 2005 as part of a project by the American designer Milton Glaser . The newspaper has a total readership of 1.5 million, 82% of whom come from the higher income groups (upper and upper middle socioeconomic classes). With sections specializing in culture, fashion and women, O Globo deals with the various issues related to the luxury market and highlights current trends around the world.
history
The paper started as an evening newspaper until 1962 and has been published in the morning since then. The editors and editors of O Globo supported the military coup in 1964 , in which the then President João Goulart was ousted. The rise of the empire finally began under the Brazilian military dictatorship. Today it is Brazil's leading provider of free and pay TV and has established itself in the print market as the second largest publisher of books and magazines. It was not until 2013 that Organizações Globo apologized for its cooperation with the military junta, but the group is still not politically independent. Marinho's three children, Roberto Irineu (* 1947), José Roberto (* 1953) and João Roberto (* 1955), now run the business, which also includes the television station Rede Globo .
