TL;DR
- Reinaldo Azevedo previously criticized journalists who he believed were paid to support the government, using terms like "TOCADORES DE TUBA" and "JEG".
- Messages extracted from Daniel Vorcaro's phone suggest a contract for Reinaldo Azevedo involving 12 installments of R$ 100,000, with seven already paid.
- The contract, initiated in March 2024, may explain the contemporary radicalization of Azevedo's perspective, even if the origin of his conversion predates it.
- Azevedo once criticized those who "lustrar os sapatos do poder," a phrase now seen as ironically applicable to his own situation.
- The article suggests Azevedo has not changed his 'instrument' but rather his 'conductor', implying a shift in allegiances.
