And having now compared coverage of the Edinburgh attacks with coverage of the 29 April Golders Green attacks, it has found that the media is also underplaying terror attacks that target Muslims. Islamophobia — The UK’s racist media establishment The hierarchy of racism in the UK is particularly obvious on the right of the…
