I'm just confused as you seemed to suggest that what the MCB said was supposed to address that.

The media isn't about to change the way it describes these people - it quite happily spent the 1980s ascribing the title 'Christian' to one of the sides fighting over Beirut. I expect people of other faiths could provide further examples. The media, especially the tabloid Press, is addictied to these simplistic pigeon holes.
