1.25 Million Take Part in Brazil Protests

One killed as more than a million protest in Brazil

Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff called for an emergency cabinet meeting Friday, one day after a protester was killed and an estimated 1.25 million people rallied nationwide demanding better public services. The mass demonstrations, which have sometimes turned violent, are taking place as football.

Brazilians marching against corruption and the cost of the 2014 World Cup are also angry at the media, including the influential Globo network, accused of belittling their movement. In Sao Paulo, the country’s business and media capital, Globo TV crews have been jeered while covering protest rallies.
