Islam has existed in the UK since 1970’s and has become a political discourse in the 21st century.
Islam has grown over the years due to immigration since the 1980’s.
After the 9/11 Twin Tower attack in 2000 in USA. There was an impact on Muslims, as they were
blamed for the terror attack. It was believed that Osama Bin Laden and Taliban have committed
this crime; and theses people are thought to be called so-called-Muslims. This had a major impact
on Muslims who were living in western countries such as the USA and UK. Many Muslims were
physically and mental abused and were victims of anti-Muslim hate crimes. For example, many
people had faced attacks such as acid attacks, verbal abuse, beaten up and even killed. Ever since
then the media had classified Muslims as ‘terrorists’. The fact that the media portrayed negative
things about Islam in the media this leads to anti Muslim hate crimes. Also, the media is biased in
what they portray about Muslims, for example if a Muslim person is to do a crime they would
emphasise in the title that the individual was a Muslim. This could have a negative effect on
people perception about Muslims.
Also, in the UK there was a terror attack on the 7th July 2005. The 7/7 bombing took place in the
UK. This event triggered various anti Muslim hate crime attacks. The media also, exaggerated the
fact that the crime was done by Muslims, this lead to a major increase of attacks towards Muslims
for example Muslim women's headscarves were ripped off. The fact that the media exaggerated
the fact that the crime was done by Muslims made non-Muslims to have a negative mind-set
towards Muslims. Also, the fact that the media has always to say something negative about
Muslims conveys the fact that they are biased in what say.
Overtime as years passed anti-Muslim Hate crime increased as well as groups such as EDL and
Britain first have increased in size as well as continued to express their hate crime towards
Muslims.

7. 1) ARTICLE: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/sep/23/media-muslims-study
TITLE: It’s time the media treated Muslims fairly
AUTHOR: Miqdaad Versi
SUMMARY: This article expresses how the media portrays Islam in a vulgar way and Muslims are blamed
unnecessary crimes. This suggests that Islam is portrayed in a bad way in the Media. Also, this article
emphasises the fact the media overlooks incidents that happen to Muslims. For example, the media
illustrated a crane fell in the city of Makkah 10 Muslims died and 87 injured. However they linked this
incident to Bin laden. Therefore this conveys that even though the media talks about the incidents
that happen to Muslims, they always link it to something negative.
IMPACT: this impacted my idea because this is clear evidence that the media does not treat Muslims
equally. Therefore i could use this in my documentary.
2) ARTICLE: http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/why-the-british-media-is-responsible-for-the-rise-in-
islamophobia-in-britain-a6967546.html
TITLE: Why the British media is responsible for the rise in Islam phobia in Britain?
AUTHOR: Miqdaad Versi
SUMMARY: The article talks about how the media is causing non-Muslims to be scared of Muslims. For
example, Cambridge University conducted research and found that mainstream media is making
people feel hostility towards Muslims. The article also, states that more than half of Britons people
see Muslims as a threat to western liberal democracy.
IMPACT: This impacted my idea because it clearly illustrates that the media is portraying Islam in a bad
way. Therefore making a documentary on the topic Islam in the media would be useful as there aren’t
many documentaries on Islam in the media.
8. 3) ARTICLE: http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/comment/islam-gets-a-bad-
press-but-there-are-many-stories-our-media-doesnt-tell-8226455.html
TITLE: Islam gets a bad press but there are many stories our media doesn’t tell
AUTHOR: Lee William
SUMMARY: This article emphasises the fact that Islam is similar to Christianity. For
example the article states ‘As the history books illustrate, Islam has as much claim
to be the religion of forgiveness as Christianity. So why don't we hear these
stories?’ Therefore this article conveys that the media on focuses on the negative
side of Islam and ignores the positive things about Islam and what it preaches.
IMPACT: This impacted my idea as it allowed me to understand further to what the
media says about Islam. Also, it allowed me to think about having vox pops of
people of other religions talking about Islam.
4) ARTICLE: http://www.livescience.com/25110-negative-messages-muslims-
media.html
TITLE: Negative Portrayals of Muslims Get More Media Attention
AUTHOR: Stephanie Pappas
SUMMARY: this article talks about after the 9/11 attacks Muslims were portrayed in a
bad way which influenced people to behave in a negative way towards Muslims.
IMPACT: perhaps i could talk about some of the points made in this article in my
documentary.
9. 5)Article: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/brexit-muslim-racism-
hate-crime-islamophobia-eu-referendum-leave-latest-a7106326.html
Title: UK entering ‘unchartered territory’ of Islamophobia after Brexit vote
Author: Ted Jeory
Summary: this article talks about how Muslim women are scared that they are more likely
to be attacked now that the UK has left the European union. Also, the article talks about
how there has been a dramatic increase in anti-Muslim hate crime in the UK. The article
also, illustrates that young people are more likely to be attacked and radicalized.
Impact: this impacted my idea as it allowed me to have a brief idea of what age group of
Muslims are likely to be attacked. Perhaps I could interview young teenagers.

soaring-their-hugh-fitzgerald
Title: Those Anti Muslim hate crimes soaring to their highest levels since 2001
Author: Hugh Fitzgerald
Summary: this article talks about how hate crime towards Muslims has increased by 76%
since 2001. This suggests that anti Muslim hate crime is a serious issue and it has to be
dealt with. The article also, suggests that people like Donald Trump have influenced people
to hate towards Muslims therefore people are aggressive towards Muslims.
Impact: this impacted my idea as it allowed me to have an overview of factors which
influence to be aggressive towards Muslims.
10. 7)Article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ahmed-khan/the-media-owes-us-
the-truth-about-islam_b_9628280.html
Title: The media owes us the truth about Islam
Author: Ahmed Khan
Summary: This article talks about how the media provides false about Islam
in the Media. For example the article states that the brutal attack in Pakistan
which aimed to killed Christians ended up with more Muslims being killed
than Christians. This suggests that Muslim are not behind terror attacks. If
they were why would they kill their own people.
Impact: I could include in my documentary how the media portrays Islam in
a negative way as well as makes up lies about Islam.
