Susie is taking part in a harmless American pastime, watching television.

|
 |
 | |  |
| More soldiers are dead, and there were two more suicide bombings...We have reports that a group of islamist extremists are to blame. | |
 | |  |

Confused by what she sees on the news, Susie decides to ask her mother about it.
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| What is an islamist? The news says they are killing people. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Well an islamist is someone who follows the Islamic religion; it doesn't mean they are killing people. | |
 | |  |

Susie's mother finds herself at a loss for words, for the way that the western media portrays other religions.
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| but, I thought we were supposed to listen to what we hear on the news... | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Well...yes, but sometimes what you see on the news isn't...well, it doesn't apply to everything. | |
