Do you remember how the British Media covered #TrojanHorseAffair?

As @nytimes latest podcast shows, there was no plot and the media failed to ask basic questions around the letter and its origins.

Lives ruined. Communities slurred. Will newspapers and broadcasters apologise? ImageImageImageImage As @OborneTweets has argued; “With few exceptions, journalists failed to examine the underlying facts while repeating what turned out to be false allegations.”

The @talkRADIO, @dailystar & @Daily_Express reported a gay paramedic was refused entry to a mosque to treat a heart attack patient

Our investigation found this demonisation of mosques was made up

Basic checks would have prevented this dangerous lie being spread

More here👇🏽👇🏽 The caller "Tom" was given almost 17 mins of airtime by @cristo_radio to make allegations including how he was prevented from entering the #Mosque, was threatened with decapitation the streets of #Oldham and that he needed police back up on call-outs to certain addresses

Today, as the #Christchurch attacker faces sentencing in New Zealand, CfMM has launched a groundbreaking report, "How The British Media Reports Terrorism."

Here's a thread of some of our key findings.

Full report available on our website: cfmm.org.uk/resources/publ… Reporting of attacks is inconsistent, depending on who the perpetrator is, with white, non-Muslim perpetrators less likely to be referred to as #terrorists.

Another win for CfMM and our supporters! @TheSun has changed an incredibly misleading headline and opening paragraph, following complaints from our staff and volunteers. A huge thank you to all who have written in! The initial headline wrongly implied that half of all imported UK #COVID19 cases were from Pakistan, and noted that 65K people returned to the UK from there since 1 March, implying a huge influx of cases prior to #lockdown.

In 2015, a UNHCR report on the refugee crisis found that, "Britain’s right-wing media was uniquely aggressive in its campaigns against refugees and migrants."

In the past 5 years, not much has changed.

#Refugees #Immigration #MediaBias @Refugees 1/7 Today's example from the Mail Online blames far-right terror attacks in Germany on the so called 'migrant crisis' of 2015, when Angela Merkel opened the borders to migrants crossing the Mediterranean. 2/7
