The newspaper "Extra" has been continuously defaming Clube de Regatas do Flamengo. Unlike other outlets, many articles published in the paper go beyond criticism and persist in an inappropriately jocular tone. Even the editorial, the publication's most prestigious and serious section, has featured mockery of club professionals.

As this behavior does not correspond to the journalism practiced by other media outlets in the club's day-to-day operations, Flamengo reserves the right not to meet the newspaper's exclusive demands.

This decision is not personal, but rather institutional. Despite this, "Extra" continues to have access to the club's facilities and can participate in press conferences as usual.
