Chapter 4: Right-wing media that reinforce Islamophobic propaganda Experts from think tanks as well as main right-wing organizations mentioned in previous chapters have established a coexistence with a group of right-wing newspapers, magazines, radio stations, TV shows, and blogs to promote their anti-Islamic messages and myths. These media give them the opportunity to reach a wider audience and spread their messages more widely.

The most important right-wing media outlets on the issue of Islamophobia include Fox News , the conservative and influential magazine, National Review and its affiliated website, the Washington Times website and newspaper, the Christian Broadcasting Network website and channel, and a group of right-wing radio channels.

The websites and online magazines of the David Horowitz Freedom Center include: FrontPage Magazine Jihad Watch Real News Blog Pamela Geller’s blog Chapter 5: Political players The success of the Islamophobia network is not possible without the mentioned individuals and organizations. But the network’s power to publicize its messages and promote misinformation about Islam and Muslims in the United States is greatly enhanced by elected officials at the state and national levels.

For example, Republican Congressman Peter King, in his speeches to the Permanent Congress, reiterated the false claim that 80 percent of American mosques are radical.

These officials use three methods to help the Islamophobia network operate: Through the enactment of laws, their legal speeches as well as electoral contests Holding campaigns to raise funds to oppose Islam Attending media and conferences related to individuals and media networks related to Islamophobia and repeating various myths told by them Report Review Since this report has been published by an American center that has nothing to do with Muslims and Islamic countries, it must be said that there is no bias in its preparation and it can be considered credible.

The report has a lot of accurate and detailed data and has closely monitored the links of the wide network threads. Also, the publication of such reports can in itself be a factor in discrediting the claims and activities of the Islamophobia network, and therefore the effectiveness of the report is important and useful.
