U.S. influence in Latin America at stake in runoff election in Brazil
A polarizing presidential election runoff in Latin America's largest economy and biggest democracy pits leftist Lula da Silva's legacy against Trump ally Flavio Bolsonaro, son of the former Brazilian president.

What the coverage shows
All three outlets frame the story as a presidential runoff between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro, with BBC and ABC News presenting them as two sharply different candidates. ABC News adds that their contrast extends to U.S. relations, climate change and social welfare, while BBC’s main item stays generic in its extract. Democracy Now! is the only outlet whose extract foregrounds AI, Meta and evangelicals as possible influences on the race.
