Here's a good question....why doesn't the news ever show the other majority of the Muslims speaking out and helping the innocent people attacked by the unislamic extremists? I was thinking this today here in Pakistan (I'm white and from the US, just visiting family) as I was watching GeoTV news. They showed the people assisting those injured, carrying those who could not walk, risking their own lives to save those caught up in the attacks. They even showed the details, such as those who, ummm, didn't "make it" before the ambulances arrived. Why does CNN and all of the American channels show us Muslims just standing around looking on? Why won't they show the previous day's and previous hour's work of helping everyone out and chasing down those who they know were part of it? They show it all over the world except the West. Our American channels did the same with the start of the Iraq war, and I know because I was here then. What do you think?

because broadcasters have a limited amount of time they can be on air..and that stuff just isn't that important.

i saw on the net and the national usa news rescue workers and general public helping the injured after the bombing of the innocent citizensedited to addi just searched for info regarding blasts and there are a ton of hits from western media showing rescue workers and citizens running around trying to help...not sure if i can post links to cnn here but just look under cnn and you will see for your self the posters original question is false and not sure why i am getting thumbs down ...geez....get real people !edited to addwhen you say "unislamic extremists" do you mean the ones responsible were not muslim or do you mean their acts were not a value held by islam? because i am not finding any info yet on who did this so not sure how you know they were not muslim or what ever religion??

WOW, what a good question!!!!! i am sorry to say i dont know but i have a theory that its gov. controlled. and that really sucks because i bet that you are right and that there were many Muslims helping out, man this really sucks....

Because the news is crap. It's no longer real journalism, it's a quest for ratings. People want to see news that makes them feel superior. That's what sells. Speaking positively about Muslim actions would kind of spoil that.Thanks for this question. It's very interesting information to hear what REALLY goes on in the world.

The media shows people what it wants people to know.CNN or Fox News it doesn't really matter, when it comes down to it, the media is one big entity."News" really isn't news, it is all about who has the money to get what they want heard.

typical muslim wanting to play the victimevery channel i seen this story on had people helping people who cares if they belong to that death cult called islam or notand whats with that attack? religion of peace my ass

u re actually right hunii m from turkeyand i agree u from hearththey show always muslims as terorists.we do not deserve thisin everywhere there can be terroristsbut terrorism is nt related to religionit is related to prejiduence and racism

I Think the News is Biased.They show what they want to.They "Edit".I Think Most Human Beings just Want to Live in Peace, Work, Raise Their Family's so on.Enjoy Life.I Think the Governments do Wrongs Things Quicker than the People They Govern.Extremeist's and Fanatic's (in AnyThing) are Always Off-Balance.And Have to be "Checked" (Balanced Again).One Way or another.

I bet it is for the same reasons, Islamic media twist our news their "very own way" and turn the facts against us...........you're just getting some of your own medication.....enjoy it!
