An August 27, 2006 article in the Washington Post on American Muslim assimilation stated that there are “approximately 6 million Muslims in the United States.” On January 17, 2007, Investor’s Business Daily addressed the demographic issue in an article entitled “The 8-million Muslim Lie.” It cited a spokeswoman for the Muslim Advancement Society boasting on CNN that “there are 8 million Muslims in America now” and a Muslim chaplain in the Marine Corps asserting that “today, 8 to 10 million Muslims live in the United States.” Then, in a rare instance of media courage, it challenged these claims as “wildly inflated” and astutely added that “politicians in Washington are intimidated by the figure.”
