Abstract

The study aims to understand the characteristics of YouTube videos in two recent Brazilian political mobilizations: "Fora Feliciano” and "Fora Renan". A quantitative and qualitative analysis was conducted on 334 videos. The findings suggest similar patterns in both events, with predominantly amateur videos and low occurrence of formal journalism content. Although most of posts are linked to street demonstrations, most of viewed videos are parodies or artistic interventions.
