摘要

关于影响对政治丑闻反应的个人层面变量的讨论主要集中在党派认同或政治愤世嫉俗等变量上，而我们认为，媒体怀疑论也可以调节个人是否以及如何对政治丑闻做出反应。为了检验这种关系，我们利用了在特朗普-乌克兰丑闻发生前后收集的美国面板数据（第 1 波在 2019 年 6 月，第 2 波在 2019 年 10 月）。我们的结果表明，在丑闻发生后，即使控制了之前的评价和替代解释，媒体怀疑论排名较高的个人对特朗普的看法也相对更积极。相反，我们发现媒体怀疑论对美国政治体系和政府的信任度没有影响。我们认为，我们的研究结果对于理解在媒体普遍持怀疑态度的时代，被治理者与治理者之间的关系具有重要意义。

Media skepticism and reactions to political scandals: An analysis of the Trump–Ukraine case

While the discussion on the individual level variables that affect responses to political scandals has focused mainly on variables such as partisan identity or political cynicism, we suggest that media skepticism could also moderate whether and how individuals respond to political scandals. To test this relationship, we rely on panel data from the United States gathered before and after the Trump–Ukraine scandal occurred (Wave 1 in June 2019, Wave 2 in October 2019). Our results show that individuals who rank higher on media skepticism hold comparatively more positive views of Trump after the scandal, even when previous evaluations and alternative explanations are controlled for. Conversely, we find no effect of media skepticism in trust toward the US political system and government. We believe our findings have significant consequences to understanding the relationship between the governed and those governing in times of widespread media skepticism.
