The UK-based Muslim TV channel, Islam Channel, is under investigation by Ofcom after being accused of inciting extremism and breaching rules on impartiality. The channel has been accused of praising violent Islamist movements, encouraging hostility against the West, and portraying terrorism sympathetically. It has also been accused of comparing Israel to the Nazi regime, giving airtime to extremists, and broadcasting misinformation. If found to have breached the broadcasting code, the channel could face penalties. Islam Channel has roughly two million daily viewers and is watched by 60% of British Muslims.
