By focusing on politics and war, rather than culture, education and religion, newspapers 'may make it harder for readers to see Muslims as part of mainstream American society,' say researchers at Middlebury College.
News coverage of Muslims in the U.S. is far more negative than that of other minority groups, according to a new study.at Vermont's Middlebury College analyzed 26,626 articles from 2018 that mentioned African Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos, Jews and Muslims. The articles selected were published inThere are an estimated 7 million Muslims living in the United States.
About 9,000 of the stories mentioned Islam or Muslims, representing more than a third of all the articles analyzed. African Americans were the second-most-covered minority, with 6,500 articles. Jews were mentioned in nearly 6,000 articles with what researchers described as an average tone of neutral.
"Even if you take all of those articles out of your equation, stories about Muslims are still more negative than stories about any other group," lab director Erik Bleich told "By giving relatively less attention to other aspects of Muslim life that are shared by all identity groups— culture, education, domestic politics —newspapers may make it harder for readers to see Muslims as part of mainstream American society," the report said.
