I am sure that if a couple of the arab world's billionaires chip in some pocket change, they can set up a TV channel, a couple of newspapers, and other ways of getting our view across in the places that "matter" instead, they are too busy flooding us with music channels in our own land.

But we do not have control over the way the western media chooses to project us. There's always going to be bad apples (on any side) and if they choose to focus on them as a reflection of our character as Muslims then that is their bias. IMO we have to strenghthen ourselves and our media and ensure the other side of the story is also told. Of course; easier said than done. Rightly said Yazeez.

The world is filled with assholes and their actions should not impact our standing because of our association to them on a certain level (religious, compatriot, etc.). Unfortunately, it seems that due to all this one-sided attention to 'terrorism', we Muslims are quick to fall on the backfoot (not pointing at you here, Yazeez). Very well said there (The Grenadine).
