Jornal Nacional achieves high ratings with Bonner’s farewell

With William Bonner bidding farewell to Jornal Nacional after 29 years at the helm of the program to move to Globo Repórter, the audience was on the edge of their seats, leading to ratings comparable to those of a successful soap opera finale. Cesar Tralli will take over the presentation starting Monday (3). The anticipation for Bonner’s farewell from Jornal Nacional, a news program he anchored for nearly three decades on Globo, boosted viewership to levels typically seen during a blockbuster soap opera finale.
