摘要

这项研究考察了2000年至2019年影响新闻报道范围的大规模公共枪击事件的特征。预测美联社报道数的负二项回归表明，伤亡人数多的枪击事件的报道范围要大得多；以政府设施、学校或礼拜堂为目标的；由年轻的袭击者实施，特别是有精神疾病迹象的袭击者；涉及恐怖主义或仇恨动机；最终导致袭击者被捕而非死亡；在较小程度上，这包括更大比例的白人、妇女、儿童和陌生人受害者。总的来说，不成比例的报道导致了对风险的扭曲认知，并强化了对这些犯罪的不准确刻板印象。

The Newsworthiness of Mass Public Shootings: What Factors Impact the Extent of Coverage?

This study examined the characteristics of mass public shootings from 2000 through 2019 that impacted the extent of news coverage. A negative binomial regression predicting AP story counts indicated substantially greater coverage of shootings with a high number of casualties; that target government facilities, schools, or houses of worship; that are perpetrated by younger assailants, particularly with indications of mental illness; that involve terrorism or hate-motivation; that end in the assailant’s arrest rather than death; and, to a lesser extent, that include larger shares of victims who are White, women, children, and strangers. Overall, the disproportionate coverage contributes to distorted perceptions of risk and reinforces inaccurate stereotypes about these crimes.
