Reporting Islam examines the coverage of Muslim women in the New
York Times from 1979-2011. The analysis addresses the nature of the
coverage; whether there are parallels in the depiction of Muslim
women from the Middle East and South Asia and with the US
government policies toward these countries; and the relationship
between feminism in the US and the representation of Muslim women
in the US. At a time when women often become the iconic
representatives of their nations, their cultures and their
religions, this book offers unique insight into how a dramatic
period of contemporary history for the Middle East and South Asia
was depicted by the leading print newspaper in the world. The
coverage captures the Islamic Revolution in Iran, the rise of
Islamist movements across the Middle East, South Asia, and Africa,
the first Gulf War, the 9/11 events, the second Gulf War, the War
on Terror, and the Arab uprisings. The book asks critical questions
about the wider implications of the misrepresentation of Muslim
women in the media, and the links between print news, US foreign
policy and women.
