1. There were no steps that cable news took to investigate.
2. Pamela Geller
3. They focused on Septemeber 11,2001, and the destruction. They had families talking about their loved ones who died, it was almost as if it were a guilt trip. It was a pull on the public emotions. Reported more about how people felt than what was actually happening. Obama spoke out about the freedom of religion.
4. There were only two employees. Shreive was followed and drilled by the media. Park 51 staff was never interviewed on cable news. It was said that most people viewed the staff as a large enterprise when in reality it consisted of only a few people.
5. Cable news used non Muslims and historians to generate information. Gleen Beck and Pamela Geller were also used in the media.
6. The ownership of Fox was a man rumored to be involved with the attack of 9/11, this is pretty crazy considering the whole news coverage was attacking this man for wanting to build a mosque when the sole leader of the news company was someone that planned a horrific thing, and no one even knew this. This shoes how news is tailored to the public and what will raise attention in the public. They need to get people talking and this is just one way.
7. The Saudi Prince, Waleed bin Talal, nephew of the Saudi King.
8. People move on, people will get tired of hearing one story. New things happen, people move on and get bored from hearing one story for weeks.
