Propaganda value of religious TV in Britain

It seems that in Britain, the head of religious broadcasting of Channel 4 is using his position to show Islam in a positive light and other faiths in a negative light. Can't say I'm surprised.


The television channel, whose head of religious broadcasting is a Muslim, is said by several Roman Catholic priests to be unfair in its treatment of different faiths.

They claim it recently showed a whole season of broadly positive programmes on Islam while a "Da Vinci Code-style" documentary on Christianity cast doubt on the validity of the Pope.

In addition, they say the Channel 4 website treats the history and beliefs of Islam more reverently than it does Christianity.
