The selection of Brazilian media organizations as part of the Worlds of Journalisms Project, an international comparative study of journalism and journalistic routines, offers contemporary data for analysis of that country's media. This involves historical aspects of national and regional media, media ownership, and key regulation aspects, as well as journalism education. The process of recognizing the best-suited news media organizations, taking into consideration the scope of the research, identified organizations willing to participate in the process, those which were not interested, and, in particular, the difficulty that most news organizations in Brazil have in dealing with academic research concerning their journalistic practices.
