Abstract

Media attention serves as an indispensable external factor in modern corporate governance, significantly enhancing oversight of enterprises. This study employs benchmark regression models and mediation effect models to empirically examine the relationship between external media attention and the quality of corporate ESG report reviews, utilizing data from 258 listed companies in China’s technology sector spanning 10 years from 2014 to 2023. The findings reveal that media attention positively drives corporate ESG disclosure. Mediating effect tests indicate that media attention enhances ESG disclosure quality by reducing short-termism in corporate strategic planning. This conclusion remains valid after endogenous and robustness tests.
