摘要：

An analysis of 201 academic sexual misconduct cases between 2017 and 2019 in which a United States university employee was named as alleged perpetrator showed that 80% were publicly broken by a legacy journalistic news outlet. The analysis demonstrates that journalism, especially local and student journalism, remains a successful method for exposing sexual misconduct of university employees. In 97 cases, news stories did not mention the #MeToo movement, indicating that cases were treated as a single person's "bad behavior" rather than as a systemic societal problem linked to rape culture. Student journalists' reporting, however, regularly linked individual cases to broader systemic issues in society, thus recognizing and contributing to a shift in public discourse on sexual misconduct.
