UK – According to the Centre for Media Monitoring (CfMM) report, nearly half of UK news articles about Muslims in 2025 contained anti-Muslim bias, with nearly 50% of all articles containing some form of bias across the UK media.

The report found that around 20,000 of the 40,913 articles published across 30 major news outlets were biased in some way.

It also revealed that 70% of the articles connected Muslims or Islam with negative behaviors or issues.

The report identified right-wing outlets as the main source of anti-Muslim bias, with The Spectator having the highest proportion of “very biased” articles.

Other outlets with the most biased coverage of Muslims include GB News, The Telegraph, Jewish Chronicle, Daily Express, The Sun, Daily Mail and The Times.

Meanwhile, BBC recorded the lowest rates of bias across the outlets studied.

“As the largest study of its kind ever conducted in the UK, this report presents deeply concerning evidence of structural bias in how Muslims are portrayed in the UK press,” said Rizwana Hamid, director of CfMM.
