CAIR bellies up to the Media bar

and spreads their manure...

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said today the centerpiece of its "Beyond Stereotypes" campaign will be distribution of the newly-published "American Muslims: A Journalist's Guide to Understanding Islam and Muslims" to some 40,000 media professionals nationwide.

CAIR's guide offers journalists the tools needed to gain a better understanding of Islam and to write accurate and balanced stories about Muslims.

The guide offers background information on issues related to Islam and Muslims, best practices for reporting on the American Muslim community and definitions of terminology often used in news stories or editorials.

The guide provides an Islamic perspective on hot-button issues such as Islam and democracy, freedom of religion, women's rights, and interfaith relations. Media professionals may request a free copy of CAIR's journalist guide through the "Beyond Stereotypes"

CAIR, America's largest Islamic civil liberties group, has 33 offices and chapters nationwide and in Canada. Its mission is to enhance the understanding of Islam, encourage dialogue, protect civil liberties, empower American Muslims, and build coalitions that promote justice and mutual understanding.

Right, and I'm Grace Kelly.

Meanwhile, the MSM will be eating it all up with a spoon.


You got to wonder what happened to CAIR's Saudi-bucks, because they're aggressively looking for sponsors to place the guides in the grubby hands of the MSM...


And here's some other steps CAIR is recommending you take to make sure the word is spread.


Maybe we should all leave a comment.
