摘要

本文研究了美国主要报纸的编辑对头版的选择。我证明，在控制了报纸的偏见和这些新闻的整体市场覆盖率之后，报纸的头版偏向于某些新闻的组合。我还提供了一个读者最大化的头版决策模型，我用它来解释经验偏差作为目标读者的报纸人口的偏好。通过我的模型，我的估计恢复了每个报纸的成对主题之间的互补性地图，我发现这些有助于一个主题的新闻出现在头版的概率。

Multidimensional media slant: Complementarities in news reporting by US newspapers

This paper studies front-page choices made by editors of major US newspapers. I document that newspaper front pages are biased to certain combinations of news after controlling for the newspaper bias and the overall market coverage of such news. I also provide a reader-maximization model for front-page decisions that I use to interpret the empirical biases as preferences of the newspaper population of target readers. Through the lens of my model, my estimates recover maps of complementarities among pairs of topics for each newspaper and I find that these contribute to the probability that news on a topic appears on the front page.
