The main aim of this paper is to identity how the British newspapers are addressing issues about the Brazilian
politics. It explores how the newspapers differ from each other in their ideological position by outlining features of their style and content. This paper analyses reportages that have been published by the mainly quality newspapers: The Guardian, The Independent and The Times, about the Brazilian’s election. The research covers the period between September and November 2006; the Brazilian elections took place in two rounds, on 3rd and 29th October 2006. This study also provides two readings of the subject according to S. Hall and R. Fowler theories. The first is concerned with the representations in the British press, and their ideological dimensions in reporting political issues related to Brazil. The second is concerned with the work of the foreign correspondents reporting on cultural diversity.
