One only has to look at how the media have slightly altered their tune re: religion in the post-9/11 world to see something rather significant: They simply have no idea how to properly cover religion.

If they'd been on the ball and unafraid of criticizing radical religionists TODAY as opposed to hundreds or thousands of years ago, they would have been warning us about the potential for 9/11.

Now, they CAN'T do that because while they are so casual in berating others for cowardice of various kinds (political, moral) they are afraid of having their newspapers boycotted or their offices burned.

So, instead of their cheerful bashing of Christianity which they so gleefully did in the 80's onward (televangelists being the norm, if you believe them), they talk about "radicalism" of ALL sorts, a nice one-size-fits-all definition that allows them to pretend to be covering what's really important in the world while still allowing them to bash Judeo-Christian believers.

Most media types are so hamstrung by their hatred for Judaism and/or Christianity that they don't even know it, so they of course can't correct it. And it blinds them to the reality, which is that western civilization is under fire. But to admit this would mean they would be the targets of something worse than radical Islam--they would be vulnerable to snarky comments at their next wine-sipping gathering, where some dweeb fellow liberal would say "I'll bet George Bush was glad to see your column this morning."

They know who the REAL bad guy is today--not Al Qaeda, not Islam, but George Bush, his advisors, and the US fighting men and women.

The day is coming when these liberal anti-Christian morons will regret the day they were born. The vaccum left behind as Christianity rapidly declines is filled very quickly by Allah’s (Satans) army. It won’t be so far off in the future until we see the murder in our streets happening as often as it does in Islamic countries when Muslims are “offended”.

The day will come when those who are very much anti-Christian libs are going to be screaming for help to those who have Christian faith and who are not afraid to stand up for freedom to come and bail out the former as the latter has to fight off those who worship the devil via a moon-rock.

People see this double standard everyday. The institutions promoting the Double-standardism are bleeding their credibility into the sand. It'll reach a point, where they'll simply be all dried up and will blow away.

We could start a pool: Which major newspaper will be the first to declare bankruptcy? Which of the major networks will be the first to drop their 'news' divisions? Which will be the next State to pass the Civil Rights Initiative? Which major politician will be the first to attack the double-standard?

The winds a'blowin' harder and harder. And it's not blowing to help the lefties.

The left is absolutely crazy

The things the muslims hate the most is what the left stands for

Homosexual marriages
Pornography
Drugs/including alcohol
Abortion

If the muslims get control the lefties will be first in line for the beheading and they are too damn stupid to see it

It is hard to imagine anyone more fatuous than Christiane Amanpour.

“Double standard [It’s OK for media to dump on Christians, but not Muslims]”

Old tradition. It was begun by th emperors of Rome and continued by the Catholic emperors of Rome, the Popes.

Old tradition.

[SengirV]

At least someone in the media sees it.

It's significant that the same newspapers that censored the cartoon strip that mentioned Islam had all carried Opus a week earlier when it made fun of Jerry Falwell.

Bingo.

Is enjoying self-deprecating humor the first thing to go in an inbred society?

[GOPJ]

...stink of cowardice, hypocrisy and bigotry.

You've called them...
