December 8th Social Columnist
December 8th Social Columnist day in Brazil, and celebrates the importance of social columnists, professionals who write about social life, cultural events, public events and, often, about influential personalities. The choice of December 8th goes back to a tribute to the pioneering professionals of social journalism in Brazil, who traditionally began to be part of the print media in the 20th century, bringing news that was previously inaccessible. Social columnists have the role of connecting the public with events, parties, and cultural aspects of public and private life, shedding light on issues ranging from social behavior to cultural trends. In Brazil, columnists such as Ibrahim Sued, Zózimo Barroso do Amaral, Amaury Jr. and Danuza Leão marked the history of social journalism.
