Abstract

Is this British press prejudiced against Islam and Muslim? And in what ways can prejudiced be explicit or subtle? This book entitled “Discourse Analysis and Media Attitudes: the Representation of Islam in the British Press” uses a detailed analysis of 140 million words of newspaper articles on Muslims and Islam, combining corpus linguistics and discourse analysis methods to produce an objective picture of media attitudes.
