The São Paulo Justice system denied coach Pablo Marçal's request against Globo and journalist Natuza Nery. He accused the broadcaster and GloboNews presenter of harming his image.
The court ruling rejected Marçal's claims that the broadcaster and journalist linked his name to false information during the floods in Rio Grande do Sul in May 2024.
Marçal's defense did not respond to contacts but has already appealed the decision.
The case involves accusations that GloboNews coverage connected Marçal to the spread of fake news at the time of the floods.
