[5] The legislature's entrance into the program opened the door for other portions of the federal government: the judiciary now occupies the last five minutes of the first half hour, and segments from the Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU) air on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
In 2007, the provisional decree that created the Empresa Brasil de Comunicação (EBC, "Brazilian Communication Company") transferred the production of this program to this new public broadcaster.
These broadcasters consider that the program has lost relevance over the years with the rise of other media; as early as 1968, most Brazilians regarded its time slot as "the hour of silence".
[5] In addition, A Voz do Brasil runs during the evening rush hour in many large cities, so stations cannot present traffic information or news updates during the program.
After Rádio Eldorado in São Paulo could not interrupt the program to inform listeners of a major traffic accident in 1995, it began a multi-year court fight that included a favorable ruling in 1998.
Rádio Jovem Pan in Paraná ran the program at 5:00 AM for more than 12 years until its authorization to do so was revoked in January 2012, though the station still refused to transmit A Voz do Brasil in its habitual 7:00 PM timeslot.
[10] In São Paulo, Rádio Metropolitana Paulista was sanctioned with a mandatory one-day suspension of programming in 2013 for not taking A Voz do Brasil in its normal timeslot.
