Muslims and Bias in the Media

“Polls have found that between 20 and 25 percent of Americans are hostile to Islam and Muslims, Hooper said. He cited a recent USA Today/Gallup Poll that found that 22 percent of respondents wouldn’t want Muslims as neighbors. That poll also found that 39 percent of respondents felt at least some prejudice against Muslims. The same percentage would favor requiring Muslims, including U.S. citizens, to carry special IDs to prevent attacks”. (J. Ritter, Chicago Sun-Times)
