Timeline

1936

Joelmir José Beting (Tambaú, December 21, 1936 – São Paulo, November 29, 2012) was a Brazilian journalist, radio and TV anchorman, and an economics-specialized columnist.

He was widely recognized for his ability to translate the harsh, confusing economical concepts (usually called by the jargon economês in Portuguese, meaning the economists' talking resembles a foreign language) into simple, easy to understand examples for the people in general.

His family came from the Westphalia region, Germany, to work in a farm in Limeira, São Paulo.

Later they moved to Tambaú, another city in São Paulo, where Joelmir has born.

He started working as a low-waged farmworker (Portuguese: bóia fria) when he was 7 years old.

1955

Thanks to the efforts of Father Donizetti Tavares de Lima, he moved to São Paulo in 1955, following his advice to learn sociology and work as a journalist.

He attended the Social Sciences classes at the University of São Paulo and earned his undergraduate degree, aiming first to make a career as a teacher.

His thesis was The adaptation of Northeast Brazilians' manpower in the auto industry, having Fernando Henrique Cardoso as one of his advisors.

While attending the university, he sought for jobs at radio stations and newspaper publishers, and succeeded to work for newspapers O Esporte and Diário Popular, and Rádio Panamericana (now Rádio Jovem Pan ) as well, making sports journalism.

However, he decided to quit the sports coverage after a soccer match between Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras and Sport Club Corinthians Paulista.

As a fanatic Palmeiras supporter, he manifested a biased behaviour during the play he was covering and decided to ask his dismissal after the game.

1970

He started his daily column in that newspaper on January 7, 1970, being also distributed to more than 50 other newspapers throughout the country.

In 1970 he started to broadcast daily economical analysis on Rádio Jovem Pan and TV Record.

1974

He moved to Rede Bandeirantes in 1974, working in both radio and television stations.

2003

In 2003, he agreed to make an advertisement campaign for Bank Bradesco, posing for advertising pieces of HiperFundo Bradesco, a mutual fund.

Due to his decision, the newspapers O Estado de S. Paulo and O Globo decided to stop the publication of his column, allegedly because the fact his economical columnist to advertise a financial product was incompatible with their policies.

He defeated those allegations in an article called "May I Talk?"

(Posso Falar?, in Portuguese).

He stated his relationships with the newspapers was not of an employee but as a supplier of a single product, "stated as of good quality, clean and free", therefore not tied to the newspapers' policies.

Furthermore, he questions supposed false questions that arose from the fact, stating "If journalism gets ashamed from advertisement – then it should survive without it", to conclude saying "To advertise a mutual fund, a new car, or toothpaste doesn't harm people. What endangers the Brazilian people in journalism (and throws the profession's ethics in the dirt) is the old, and even celebrated, journalistic merchandising, with political, partisan, ideological, cultural, religious or militant nature."

2004

He went back to Rede Bandeirantes in 2004, to be the anchorman of Jornal da Band, along with Carlos Nascimento and Mariana Ferrão, and to Rádio Bandeirantes as well, rebuilding the same original formation of Jornal da Bandeirantes Gente.

His last homage was paid at Cemitério do Morumbi, before his cremation.

Joelmir Beting's son, Mauro Beting, was on air in Rádio Bandeirantes featuring a post-game radio program after São Paulo FC v. CD Universidad Católica match when he was warned about his father's death.

Immediately he started to read a letter in homage to him, as reproduced here:

"I have never talked to my father about it after Palmeiras has been downgraded. But I knew he has learned it. Or imagined it. What I know is the first Sunday after falling to the 2nd Division for the second time, Mr. Joelmir had a stroke before to watch the first match after the downgrading. He made a tomography early in the morning. In some minutes the doctor (a fanatic Corinthians supporter) said another giant could no longer rise again.

''In the day after to the Diabolic second-class division my father started to go to Heaven.

The chances to recover from an autoimmune disease were not so good.

They became almost impossible with the bleeding of his privileged brain.

Irrigated and ventilated as too few among those who know and recognize him.

Beloved and cherished for those not too few that had the privilege to know him.''
