One trigger of sectarian crises in Egypt is journalistic writing that lacks political responsibility and professionalism. Some articles focus on the sectarian side of a story and cite exaggerated explanations of statements made by religious men, politicians, intellectuals, or artists. Also, writings that attack other religions can be another trigger for sectarian strife. Also, men of religion can propagate bigotry through their writing or by appearing on satellite channels, which are widespread in the region.
