Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the newspaperreport “Filho da Rua” (son of the street) published in June 2012 by the newspaper Zero Hora, Rio Grandedo Sul, and Esso Prize winner for Reporting in 2012, using the concepts of “ideas journalism”, from Michel Foucault, and “ethnographic journalism”, from Érik Neveu.
