Postagem afirmando que livro didático do ensino médio da Noruega retrata o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL) como genocida responsável por 700 mil mortes de covid-19 no Brasil. A publicação traz a imagem de um livro que contém uma foto do ex-presidente, junto com um texto em norueguês.

Publisher’s rating: Enganoso

The review says the image is from a Norwegian-language textbook that discusses Bolsonaro’s pandemic response and the first year’s Brazilian death toll, but does not call him genocidal or say he was responsible for 700,000 deaths. The publisher said the text neither uses the word genocide nor implies that a genocide occurred.

Postagem divulga imagem do prefeito de São Paulo e candidato à reeleição, Ricardo Nunes (MDB), ao lado do padre Júlio Lancellotti. A legenda alega que Nunes pediu bênção ao sacerdote para governar São Paulo.

Publisher’s rating: Enganoso

The review says the photo was posted by Lancellotti on Instagram on January 8, before the election campaign, and that its original caption described a meeting about issues affecting people living on the streets. Lancellotti told the review there was no support for any candidate; the article does not specifically address whether Nunes asked for a blessing.
