Former CBS News Middle East correspondent and author, America and Islam *\u003cbr\u003eThis book is an invaluable resource, highlighting the gendered violence and Islamophobic misrepresentations that Muslim women experience around the globe driven, in part, by the flawed reporting that is prevalent in newspapers of record, such as the New York Times. A must read for anyone interested in understanding how media can shape perceptions of women and Islam. * Shaheen Pasha, Pennsylvania State University, USA *\u003cbr\u003eIn careful, dismaying detail, this must-read thoroughly researched essay collection shows how our most trusted media sources promote Islamophobia. \u003ci\u003eReporting Islam\u003c\/i\u003e is a sobering reminder of how Islamophobia is not the result of ignorance, but of routinized, persistent misrepresentation by our most revered institutions. * Evelyn Alsultany, USC Dornsife, USA *\u003cbr\u003eBy analyzing anti-Muslim racism within the contexts of colonialism, global capitalism, and race\/class\/gender politics, \u003ci\u003eReporting Islam \u003c\/i\u003ehelps readers understand the historical and political conditions through which it emerges. It also updates existing perspectives on how media representations fuel some of the most urgent forms of injustice of our times while providing readers with tools for imagining and building a world without Islamophobia and racism. Its urgent interventions make it a must read for the general public and scholars across many fields--from Arab American and Muslim American Studies to Race and Ethnic Studies, Middle East Studies, Gender and Women’s Studies, Media Studies, and beyond. * Nadine Naber, University of Illinois , Chicago, USA *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements  Preface Introduction \u003ci\u003eSuad Joseph, University of California, Davis, USA \u003c\/i\u003e 1.
