The first strategy used by the media is that the media picks up
black sheep of the Muslim community. And it portrays these
people as though they're exemplary Muslims. It picks up black sheep
of the Muslim community could not follow the Quran, who don't follow
the authentic Hadees who criticize Islam, it picks up these black
sheep. And it portrays as though these people that exemplary
Muslims. We have black sheep in every community, whether it be the
Hindu community, whether it be the Jewish community, but the be the
Muslim community, whether it be Indian, whether it be American,
but the media, it picks up these minority black sheep. And it
portrays as though these people that are exemplary Muslims. So
