Episode 395 - Wallace Souza: Killing for Ratings

  • Summary

  • They say Brazil is not for amateurs. And that’s certainly true in the crime-stricken city of Manaus, where Wallace Souza – a charismatic TV host and congressman with a flair for the dramatic – built up an army of fans with his hard-hitting news coverage in the early 2000s.

    But was his bonkers daytime TV show, Canal Livre, just a smokescreen for his own shady criminal empire? And how far would Wallace go to increase his show’s already killer ratings?

    Grab your bug spray and join us for another exciting filmed full episode, as we strap in for wild ride into the Amazonian urban jungle – and a story packed with samba, gangsters and conspiracy theories galore...

    Video version will be available Thursday 17th April on our YouTube channel!
