The Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting (CAMERA) was founded in 1982. According to its website, CAMERA is “a media-monitoring, research and membership organization devoted to promoting accurate and balanced coverage of Israel and the Middle East” and is a “non-partisan organization.”
CAMERA is pervasively inaccurate and disguises its anti-Muslim agenda by omitting important information.
CAMERA cites the work of notoriously Islamophobic individuals to discredit American Muslims and Muslim organizations. In 2012, CAMERA published a report called The Islamic Society of North America: Active, Influential and Rooted in the Muslim Brotherhood. The report accuses multiple American Muslim organizations and individuals to be front groups for terrorism. The most frequently referenced source is Steven Emerson’s Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT).
