The Intercept is an American left-wing[1][2][3] nonprofit news organization that publishes articles and podcasts online.
The Intercept has published in English since its founding in 2014, and in Portuguese since the 2016 launch of the Brazilian edition staffed by a local team of Brazilian journalists.
The advent of a host of online news platforms—Breitbart News on the right and The Intercept on the left—have cut into mainstream news's audience, with their predictable right- and left-wing takes on politics.
Three years earlier, in an angry exchange with PT congresswoman Maria de Rosário, he told her that "she was too ugly to rape", prompting Rosário to press criminal charges, and the left-wing publication The Intercept to describe Bolsonaro as "the most misogynistic, hateful elected official in the democratic world".
