This research investigates how transparency has been applied to journalism and how the internet news agency The Intercept Brasil (TIB) made use of it in the series of reports “#VazaJato”, which revealed to Brazil the transgressions of members of the Federal Public Ministry and a judge during investigations of corruption schemes in the largest Brazilian public company, involving prominent public figures in national politics (Operation and CarWash Task Force). For these purposes, we discuss some of the crises that journalism is going through in these first decades of the 21st century and the concept of transparency in different areas of social life, including when its use is negative. As a method, content analysis (BARDIN, 1979) was applied to list, based on the concept proposed by Christofoletti and Becker (2020), which transparency indicators can be identified in the TIB series. The corpus of this study consists of 29 predominantly informative texts that were originally produced and published by The Intercept Brasil. We identified that the site used resources related to transparency, above all, to counter accusations of manipulation of content and contexts. TIB divided the method used in investigations and the guiding principles between reports and editorials, mainly.
