Investigative Report

Federal courts rely on information contained in pre-sentence investigations to determine sentence length. However, defendants do not have access to this prior to entering a plea. Thus many offenders have received sentences longer than what was anticipated during plea negotiations. The authors surveyed chief federal probation officers (n = 96) to measure the feasibility of pre-plea reports being prepared. The 68% response rate provided strong indication of practices and attitudes. Despite the increased work associated with such a system, some support does exist for the concept. Further, most respondents acknowledged that such a system would be beneficial to defendants.

Abstract We extend research on how corporations respond to scandals by examining the evolution of the accounts that are developed by corporate agents after a scandal becomes public. Guided by the theory of accounts and a recently developed perspective on crisis management, we examine how the accounts developed by 12 corporations caught up in highly publicized scandals changed from the time of initial exposure to the issuance of an investigative report. Our analysis shows that denial of wrongdoing in several cases is replaced by admission of wrongdoing and scapegoating, while obfuscation of wrongdoing is replaced by denial or acceptance of responsibility and scapegoating. We conclude with a discussion of the broader managerial and social implications of our analysis and how it furthers our understanding of the ability of corporations to weather serious scandals.

Attribute Agenda Setting

When it publishes a major investigative report or exposé, a prominent news organization can transfer the salience of both an issue and its attributes to other news outlets. Major investigations can also affect how reporters in the same outlet think about an issue in the news. The present study examines intramedia and intermedia agenda-setting effects in the context of sport, drawing on allegations of a state-sponsored doping program in Russian athletics. In May 2016, Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov, a former doping official in Russia, described the program to reporters at the New York Times, and the ensuing front-page story impacted coverage both internally and externally. The current study considers the implications of these effects for sports journalism and individual athletes.
