And now that so much of the media is in corporate hands, truth and good research have given way to the bottom line. When the freakiest 2% of your community is given 95% of the media's attention, while the legitimate representatives go largely ignored, it's not surprising that many people will have a very unbalanced perspective.
If you're alluding to the Asper family's Jewish heritage as their 'agenda' then you're hurling the same kind of mud you're accusing others in this thread of hurling towards Islam.
