This book primarily sheds light on the contributions of the British media in dehumanizing Muslims and oriental refugees through news coverage, movies, tv shows, documentaries, and even on social media by presenting them as threats to national security, economy, and the Western cultural values. It may include some specific terms that might need an explanation or definition for the average Western reader that may not have so much in common with Muslims and their religion on daily basis. Namely, Orientalism, Refugee, Media, and Islamophobia. It thus, seeks to analyze orientalism in the British media. It also portrays the impact of orientalism in English literature with the aim of comprehending the stereotypes and images at work in the types of cognition European countries have about Muslims and Muslim countries. The book is greatly indebted to Edward Said’s two ground-breaking publications on the top of other valuable contributions to the field by various scholars with their books and articles. One of them is Orientalism 1979, which in fact forms the theoretical framework.
