Abstract

This article analyzes the television censorship during the Brazilian military regime, pointing to the existence of various types of censorship employed to different television genres. These differences in criteria and mechanisms to censor television expose the tense encountered between the logic of production of the television industry and television viewing by the military regime as an instrument of social control and vehicle for education of the masses. Based on the extensive documentation found in the archives of the Division of Censorship and Public Entertainment (DCPD), this paper aims to reconstruct the network of relationships of power, complicity and tensions affecting television production during the Brazilian military regime.
