Here are two paragraphs from Sky's report:<br /><br />Prince Charles said preventing the radicalisation of Muslim youth was a "great challenge" and something that could not be swept "under the carpet".<br /><br />He expressed particular concern over the threat posed by young Muslims coming into contact with extremists online, describing it as "frightening".<br /><br />Nowhere in the BBC account, however, will you see the words 'Muslim', 'Muslims' or 'Islam'.<br /><br />Prince Charles used them, but the BBC has simply chosen not to report them in the context of its lead article. ronnie bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03886562794521401319noreply@blogger.com
