Answer:

The answer is scapegoating.

Explanation:

Scapegoating refers to blaming a single person or group of people for a negative outcome. The concept itself appears in the Bible, in which a goat or another animal was sacrificed for the sins of others.

Scapegoating may also occur to organizations and corporations. A simple example of scapegoating is blaming the media for real-world violence.
