Marcelo, TVI and Presidential – TVI24

TVI goodbye to Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa (Nuno Pereira / TVI) Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa is from Friday official candidate for President. Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa longer, on Friday, commentator TVI. In recent months, Marcelo hesitated, calculated Marcelo, Marcelo wanted then did not, came back wanting to not want to say no, implying that yes, until finally decided.

This was obviously not an irrelevant situation for Information TVI. The output of one of its leading figures in antenna, a man who for 15 years fidelizou an audience of millions of telespetadores, is anything but an irrelevant scenario. But what a citizen thinks or not do with your life is something you just say to you about. And the choice of people to view space on a private television station’s editorial prerogative, citizens and society validate the simplest possible way: push a button and change the channel.

TVI did not know if Marcelo progressed to Bethlehem. It was confronted with it on Thursday night when the commentator informed the company’s management that the next day would publicly announce his candidacy. The station of the Information Department only had confirmation at the time of Friday lunch. And he broke the news. As you would with any other candidate.

It will be henceforth so, as has always been the rule in this regard: Live commentator, this commentator died! You will have to undergo. May turn out to protest. It is not a commitment. Or a summary trial. This, as always, will be done by the Portuguese. Who will judge who is the best for the Presidency. And what television who prefer to stay informed. In one case it is a problem. The other is the mission that an entire essay, will continue to inspire.

A great communicator. You can not understand, no one can even explain, as one speaks for 40 minutes without images, without sound, without interruption, without tricks or special effects, only he and a journalist who challenges or questions, as well as simple, years on end, and win! Always wins.

Your condition unbeatable made us invincible on Sundays. There is nothing or no one that you compare the TV, any TV that is, anywhere in the world. Not known anything like it. What Marcelo did for years and years is, in a sense, the antithesis of modern television: with rhythm, movement and color, life revealed in short reports, outside the studio, with sophisticated graphics and post-production the way.

But the man won the Nation commentator status in their own right. First in TVI, then the RTP and again in TVI, from May 2010 until yesterday. Not because it is the main one. Is not universal because gained enemies. To his popularity, unambiguous, measurable, always countered a prejudiced and reactionary elite. Marcelo has broken, has interests, has friends and sympathies. Marcelo has never been exempt. Popular but not plural. Catholic without being holy. By pluralism or Puritanism, the guardians of morals and good customs did not want him there. That divide your space by others. Or simply be quiet.

It is the cynical totalitarianism who opened his arms to the market economy and requires the State to determine the comments on private television policy. The country sang freedom wants the parties, by regulatory actions, decide who among them should have airtime by decree or ordinance. They participated in several governments that surrendered soul and heart to the “laissez faire, laissez passer”, but still believe that the editorial is attached to landline or a minister controleiro that advises.

I admit that the subject is susceptible of discussion, but it is wrong to think that now was born naive and narrow it down to one person. It turns out that Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa is not just one, as has always been the most influential and successful. Until now it was commentator, point-finals paragraph. Belongs to the history of TVI, she added her chapters, was for years to live our life and this was the only thing that mattered. For television station, which always won with him. For himself, he felt good between us.

The pseudo-putative proto-candidate for president is it now in fact. End the intellectual anguish, ideological censorship and regulatory temptations of a minority that still lives poorly with the freedom of choice of millions of people who systematically gave him the preference. Marcelo earned the hearings. Their war becomes the polls. It is another war. It is not our barricade.
