Prejudice toward Muslims is highest among all religious and ethnic groups

An article posted by The Brookings Institute written by Shibley Telhami describes the results of research conducted that point to prejudice against Muslims being the highest among all religious and ethnic groups in the United States.

"After years of improvement, American public attitudes toward Muslims and Islam have declined in the past few months, and expressed public prejudice toward Muslims remains higher than toward any other religious, ethnic, or racial group studied. These are two of the key findings in our latest University of Maryland Critical Issues Poll (UMDCIP) with SSRS, which measured opinions on several relevant dimensions and compared them with previous polls."
