Media Development 2016/2

Islamophobia and the Media

“We have to acknowledge that the media, more often than not, shape and actively craft public opinion rather than mirroring it. We still live in a time where the majority of people assume they are being fed facts as opposed to opinions or editorialised facts. They take the media, particularly the news, as the truth.”
– Afia Ahmed Chaudhry
