Cover Story: Explanations about the recent rise of the extreme right across different national contexts often espouse the thesis that social media platforms have overtaken legacy media as the primary conduits of political discourse. Focusing on the case of Bolsonaro in Brazil, we test the association between voting preferences and the use of different media through a logistic regression analysis of survey data. Our findings highlight that legacy media, particularly broadcast TV, remain dominant sources of political information for the Brazilian electorate. While Bolsonaro’s supporters favor social media, they also consume significant amounts of legacy media. We have also identified nuanced media consumption habits, such as a preference for certain TV channels and fact-checking behaviors, which underscores the complex interplay between legacy and social media. View this paper
