It is important to point out that this is the first time that the existence of Islamophobia in the media has been confirmed through a long-term systematic and scientific analysis, confirming this fact will allow us to cross the threshold of the first debate on the very existence of Islamophobia in the Spanish press and thus invest the efforts to achieve a more inclusive coverage, accurate and in accordance with professional ethics on Muslim citizenship "
