A change in Portuguese journalism occurred in the 60s. Despite the authoritarian and repressive regime of the Estado Novo, new trends began to mark the Portuguese newspapers. A less bureaucratic, more creative and experimental style, a focus on genres such as reporting and interviewing were identified in the Lisbon newspapers, where photography and new sources of information began to appear more frequently. This paper seeks, through a case study, to evaluate if these new trends were also manifested in the Porto press. Through the analysis of the “Crime da Rua do Sol”, an emblematic case of the city of Oporto, this article identifies the signs of change, especially in the Jornal de Noticias newspaper.
