Resenha: 
This book proposes the idea of Journalism as a cultural activity of emancipatory potential by retrieving Paulo Freire’s concepts regarding liberating pedagogical practices. Emancipatory journalism is a proposal for overcoming media spectacles that have taken over current journalism activities, in which the truth has been turned into to verisimilitude and opinion into opinionism.
