Coming from a suburban town filled with rich white people, I did not encounter much diversity, especially in the context of religion. To this day, I do not personally know anyone who practices the Islamic faith or identifies themselves as Muslim, leaving much of what I know about Muslims to be based on what the media portrays them to be. Growing up in a Post – 9/11 world, I often blindly followed the tediously long precautions of airport security and became increasingly fearful of the people around me that covered up their skin. I succumbed to the demonizing media portrayal of Muslims that only showed the Islamic faith in a negative light. Like many Americans, I thought Muslims were dirty Arabs whose sole purpose was to strike terror in our

When the White House felt a retraction was not enough because so much harm had already been done, the media got extremely upset with the White House, due to the pressure they were putting on the publication (52-53). Begala agrees with Hewitt that the media has a bias, but argues that it is a liberal bias. He cites the media's obsession with the Clinton and Monica Lewinsky scandal and how, "Even when Clinton was leaving office, he was hounded and pounded by the press" (199). He argues the news coverage was unfair, brutal and unethical in the way both Bill and Hillary Clinton were treated during the scandal (200).
