Marcelo Tas, host of a weekly TV comedy, poses for pictures in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Monday, Aug. 16, 2010. Tas was working as a comedian-turned-reporter to needle politicians, hammering away at officeholders near the end of Brazil's 1964-1985 dictatorship and bluntly calling out corrupt leaders when few others dared. Brazilian TV and radio broadcasters are legally forbidden from making fun of candidates by a law which prohibits ridiculing candidates in the three months ahead of elections on Oct. 3.
