This Master’s Dissertation questions on how the journals of Pará, O Liberal e Diário do Pará, two of the most important of their kind at the Amazon at present, produce speeches about cases of sexual violence against childrens and teenagers. We took, as research support, reports published at the Police pages and in various spaces of the journals, over their path, besides journalistic sentences produced during the validity of the Parliamentary Commission of Investigation (PCI) of the Legislative Assembly of Pará, between 2008 and 2010. To make possible the discursive analysis about this complex issue, we adopted as a methodology the Analysis of Speech, specially the theories of the French author Michel Foucault about speech, history and power. In order to make the selected corpus read. To deepen our analysis, we made an archaeological work of the history of the press of Pará to watch the update of the memories web and the relations of power that go through the journals’ speech about the issue, because at the microphysics of media power of Amazon both are in a “discursive war” registered in a peculiar way on their pages. So, we made an approachement of the analysis of speech with the journalism’s studies, using theorists of the Communication area, as Nelson Traquina. Besides that our research considered the analysis of peculiarities of Amazon, region located at the North of Brazil that suffers many national media discursives erasements through the history and where we also observed, in the middle of it’s variarity, the cultural practice of “calves”, which our studies showed as secular practice that until the present days takes children from interior cities to live and study at the capital cities. This and other dynamics about the sexual abuse and exploration of children and teenagers made we realize series of discursive (ab)uses about the issues at the press of Pará.
