dc.description.abstractThis article analyzes how the January 6, 2021, invasion of the U.S. Capitol was presented on the front pages of newspapers in seven countries. The demonstration, held by President Trump’s supporters, aimed to prevent the proclamation Joe Biden’s victory, elected in November 2020. To understand how the event was reported by 21 newspapers, a hybrid methodology of quantitative and qualitative content analysis, which is considered a trend in communication research (FONSECA, 2005) and with methods proposed by Bardin (2002), applied by Sousa (2006) and Rosenthal (2014), is used. We analyze: space dedicated to the event, textual and visual elements. The newsworthiness of the fact is verified through the space dedicated on the front pages, the formatting of headlines with prominent letters, the use of photos that endorse the titles based on political speeches, and the unprecedented nature of the action, which reveals the fragility of democracy in the country.eng
