当新闻界爆发政治丑闻时，我们通常指责政府官员的不当行为，但这些事件是政治事件，其发生和严重程度也部分取决于政治和媒体背景。使用美国州长的数据，我表明，几个关键因素影响的可能性和强度，所谓的不当行为将被政治化的反对派和媒体公布。首先，较低的支持率降低了将指控政治化和公开化的成本，通常与更频繁和更激烈的媒体丑闻有关。相比之下，相互竞争的新闻事件可能会将潜在的丑闻挤出新闻议程。然而，没有证据表明反对派控制国家政治机构会导致更多的媒体丑闻。这些结果表明，媒体丑闻的发生更多地取决于环境比我们通常认为的。
When political scandals erupt in the press, we usually blame misconduct by public officials, but these episodes are political events whose occurrence and severity also depend in part on the political and media context. Using data on U.S. governors, I show that several key factors affect the likelihood and intensity that alleged misconduct will be politicized by the opposition and publicized by the press. First, lower approval ratings, which decrease the cost of politicizing and publicizing an allegation, are generally associated with more frequent and intense media scandals. By contrast, competing news events can crowd potential scandals off the news agenda. However, no evidence is found that opposition control of state political institutions leads to more media scandal. These results suggest that the occurrence of media scandal depends more on circumstance than we typically assume.
