Notions of accountability alter the autonomy of these entities which are governed by private law. The single case study of the City of Potsdam (Germany) serves as a longitudinal comparison that isolates the effect of media attention on prevailing accountability systems over time. The case findings support agenda- setting theory. Media attention to compliance failure was related to a change of board structures, and new guidelines on compliance and sponsorship.
