Fenaj released a note on Monday criticizing Globo for choosing Virginia Fonseca as a special reporter for Domingão com Huck at the 2026 World Cup.
The National Federation of Journalists repudiated the hiring of the 27-year-old influencer, former SBT presenter, to cover the event in the United States, Mexico and Canada.
Virginia Fonseca is expected to produce social media content focused on behind-the-scenes, travel and daily life, in addition to hosting a weekly segment on Luciano Huck's program. The broadcaster seeks to increase engagement on digital platforms.
Contacted, Globo and Virginia Fonseca said they would not comment on the matter.
