Zusammenfassung: We study how professions can become contaminated through stigma by association in the wake of a scandal that affects their members. We argue that scandals, being field-moralizing events, durably change the way in which audiences evaluate the conduct of members of the profession in a number of ways. First, we show that in the wake of a scandal the behavior of all professionals within the field faces greater contestation than it did prior to the scandal. Second, we find evidence that following a scandal, high-status professionals face higher levels of contestation than low-status ones. We suggest that this is because the generalized loss of trust in the profession that ensues from a scandal is especially damaging to such actors, in a reversal of the deference–and associated privileges–they are usually afforded, generally known as "Matthew effect." Third, we show that, because in the wake of a scandal audiences tend to develop a preference for informal social control, perceived inaction on the professionals’ part will become especially contested, and especially so in the case of high-status professionals. A study of media coverage of Italian football referees’ decisions before and after the 2006 scandal known as Calciopoli provides support for our arguments.
