Blame It On The Media!
By Irfan Jalil
"The media" eh? God bless it. It's normally a popular subject at the sheesha joints. We can blame it for all the ills of the world.
We'd love to have a good old bash, but someone realised that we, "The Revival", are part of the media too. The magazine. The website. The interviews. It's all a part of the media. So we toned it all down and decided to concentrate on other media outlets.
The media has a strong influence on public opinion. It provides not only information but ways of looking at the world. It informs and influences. Issues about Muslims are very often shaped by the media.
