No final da década de 1990, uma pequena cidade da grande São Paulo viveu um escândalo que abalou a politica nacional. Todos os vereadores da câmara municipal foram subitamente afastados de seus mandatos. Menos um.
No primeiro episódio de Escafandro, partimos dessa história para mostrar um pouco de como são os homens públicos mais próximos da população: os vereadores.
E de como as câmaras municipais replicam a política de outras esferas, criando heróis e vilões que mudam de lado com o tempo, ou apenas conforme o ponto de vista de quem observa.

Following the discovery of a strange book, Sarah Green revises the story of the late nineteenth-century poet Lionel Johnson, whose legacy was distorted in the 1950s by a criminal with a taste for fancy bedding; in the US, of 70,000 cases that went to disposition in 2016, more than 99 per cent resulted in conviction. What does this tell us? Clive Stafford Smith explains why American justice is a mirage; since 2015, Refugee Tales – part walking pilgrimage, part protest, part collection of narratives about those unjustly treated by Britain’s immigration system – has become an annual event.

Booktubers são youtubers que falam sobre livros. O nicho está em franco crescimento e tem profissionais dos mais diversos estilos. Alguns se dispõem a fazer resenhas pagas pelo autor do livro ou pela editora. Entre estes, há aqueles que deixam muito claro o que é pago e o que não é, e aqueles que apenas sinalizam discretamente.
Até que ponto essa prática é ética? Como o jornalismo, a crítica e a publicidade têm se relacionado antes e depois do advento das novas mídias e das redes sociais? Como essa relação pode afetar as redações e a sociedade em que vivemos?
