 José Bonifácio de Oliveira Sobrinho (Boni), former Vice President of the Globo Organizations, confirmed during an interview to journalist Roberto D'Ávila in 2005 that Roberto Marinho was the one who suppressed the coverage of the first large rally of the Diretas Já movement.According to Boni, "Mr. Roberto did not want mention of Diretas Já" and decided that the event in Praça da Sé would be reported "without any participation of any of the dissenters".What would have occurred, still according to him, was "double censorship" (by the government regime and broadcaster).
