This is a clear case of prejudice nothing more or nothing less. I have been living in US for 20 years, every time a Muslim nation try to achieve something, there is a dedicated media campaign against it. For example, few years back Dubai tried to bid on LA port. They almost bought it. They had the highest bid. Media started an intense campaign equating all Muslims to some of the most horrible things in the world. As a result, congress and senate got involved and that bid was denied. Let me give you a recent example. A few days ago, on request from US government, Qatar govt got involved in a prisoner swap between Taliban and US. All Qatar did was facilitate the who negotiation and spent got amount of money and took great risk on reputation for the great country of Qatar. But if you would see the coverage of American media of this story, you would find that Qatar is accused of working with Taliban against US. Qatar is shown in media as a week nation that is not able to take care of it's affairs.
What bothers me more than coverage of western media is when Muslims start aligning behind biased coverage against Muslims thinking that somehow makes them progressive and modern.
