this paper presupposes the existence of a growing approximation between the Ministers of the Brazilian Supreme Court (STF in Portuguese) and certain subjects of public opinion. This relationship presents positive aspects for the STF’s jurisdictional activity, such as increased transparency, that is, the expansion of visualization and potential understanding of decision-making processes. The paper its structure in two parts with the main objective of theoretically understanding how a judicial decision uses the journalistic news for its reasoning. First, it analyzes the idea of public reason according to John Rawls and, in the sequence; the concept of public sphere according to Jürgen Habermas. Uses the systematic literature review for the analysis and confrontation of themes related to the public sphere and public reason according to their theoretical exponents. The results support the conclusion of a greater theoretical adequacy between public reason and the expansion of transparency in STF judicial decisions.
