| Nov 20, 2016 at 15:23 | comment | added | user5341 | Also, the answer would be more accurate if you presented a balanced picture, like the fact that at first glance, the Sun was actually publishing what seems to be an accurate figure, and ECRI simply disliked that the truth was being stated - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_attitudes_toward_terrorism#Polls | |
| Nov 20, 2016 at 15:19 | comment | added | user5341 | I'm not sure where the (50) shades of grey are coming from. It's a binary choice - you either state that the terrorist was Muslim, or not. You can't "de-emphasize" that without banning it as there's no middle ground, being a binary choice - the only way down from "1" is a "0". | |

| Nov 19, 2016 at 21:56 | comment | added | DavePhD | @Oddthinking see if answer is more clear now. I searched through the whole report for all instances of the strings "Muslim", "Islam", "media", "press" and "news". A lot of stuff snopes is talking about isn't from parts of the report that are discussing Muslims. And the other claims are highly exaggerating. | |

| Nov 19, 2016 at 18:13 | comment | added | DavePhD | @Oddthinking Snope's statement "the ECRI called for an independent press regulator" is true, ECRI implies that the regulator should cause the press to minimize references to Islam as a motivation, in favor of not stating a motivation or saying the person has a psychological problem. There is footnote 51 that I could add, and I haven't fully read the 83 page report, but I think I have the most relavent part of the report in the answer already | |
| Nov 19, 2016 at 17:35 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | The question contains a number of different wordings of a claim about banning ("told the British press it must not report" versus "recommends the British media be barred" versus "issued a recommendation" versus "recommended replacing it with a new, independent, self-regulatory body established by statute" versus "advocated a ban". This quote is none of those. Are you saying this is the only relevant quote and all the claims (including Snopes') are untrue? | |
