How come when CNN does a special on Islam, they ALWAYS interview radical muslims, instread of real true peaceful muslims. Why do they like to make Islam look bad.

I know. It sucks doesn't it? By interviewing radical Muslims or Jews posing as Muslims(which I think some of those people are) they make Islam out to be a violent women oppressing fanatical religion. I think that channel is run by Jewish people and that's why they never have real Muslims on that channel. That and the media just likes instilling fear in the American public. I think they like making Islam look bad because they're mostly racists who have nothing better to do than degrade innocent Arabs and Muslims. I'm Muslim and it makes me mad to see Islam and my Muslim brothers and sisters protrayed that way.

I want to know why people like you always post half truths. I am watching the CNN special on Islam right now and it is showing many different kinds of Muslims. Radicals calling for the end of democracy since they want Sharia Law. Younger Muslims that don't even know what Sharia Law is and then when told said oh no not that, we want English law. Woman that cover up. Woman that don't cover up. It's showing all sides, which is surprising for CNN. The only people that make Islam look bad are those inside the religion, the ones that commit violence and the ones that remain silent.
May God Bless you.

I saw a great program on Muslim's on CNN. A christian family went to live for a month with a rural Muslim family in the middle east. The muslim family were very intelligent and functional. As usual the christian americans were an embarassment.

CNN has had some positive programs about Islam. Fox News is the negative network.

Simple - they need an enemy. CNN and FOX have both been caught running propaganda pieces that were distributed by the Pentagon. How is that our news outlets in the US can run stories every day about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and yet the general population has no idea what a refugee camp is?

They're Americans and controversy sells. Ever since 9/11 childish prejudice against the Muslim community has been rampant.

They look far and wide to find those radicals, If they showed the antithesis, It wouldn't make the war seem so right.

well, true muslims are radical muslims. if you read the koran, it says to kill all infidels. believe me. i've read for myself. peaceful muslims are secular muslims who either have not read the koran or they do not want to follow the true islam beliefs

Maybe the news is more interested why some Muslims are militant, rather than those who are not.
