Opinion Media Hypocrisy Versus Islam, The Noble Religion
JUN 6, 2018 LISTEN

It is now clear and visible to the blind, that the world famous media houses are not fair and just to islam as a religion.

We as Muslims have suffered a lot of image damage in the eyes of the people beyond measure through unfair and bias Media reportage over the years.

The BBC, ABC, CNN, aljeezera among others are all guilty of this unfair and unjust reportage about Islam over the years.

This week , when the news of the Malian Spiderman Mouhadou Gassama humanitarian actions broke up and his subsequent granting of employment and French citizenship, i followed the news with keen interest to see or hear whether or not his brave actions are linked to Islam, his religion.

What conspicuously missing from all the headlines of the famous media houses were the religion of this great young man (islam).

I followed the story on BBC, ABC, VOA, CNN and other channels, but did not hear the mentioning of his religion, islam.

Though, this is not the first time in Europe that a Muslim undertakes such humanitarian acts, but non of their good actions have ever been linked to islam as a religion.

Then, i asked will the media have reported it in a similar way if Mouhadou Gassama carried out a bad or dastard action?. Obviously no, his religion islam will have been linked completely with his actions and he will have been Nicknamed a terrorist, islamist, extremist, jihadist among other names, to drag the noble religion into dispute and public hatred.

This media bias must stop. If an individual Muslim is responsible for his good actions, then he must be responsible for his bad actions when he does it.
