Heterogeneous?
Would you be willing to share an example event and a link to the false reporting?
Why?
I'd like to know what type of assignment this was. If it's small and specific, there might be only a few basic working solutions. That is, the similarity stems from being correct.
If it's a larger project with creative design decisions, then I'm less sympathetic.
No USA base Muslim group of any statistical significance (or other group) is anti-democracy in the USA (and the USA is about 20% Muslim, so we would notice if it was a primary agenda).
According to Pew Research, Americans are 0.6% Muslim.

Where did you find 20%?

What's the record for EEs? I might have a shot at that.
The grain growers wanted to mass produce and sell the stuff, and some politicians liked a "heart healthy" message (despite scientists protesting that more research was needed before jumping to conclusions) and so the whole "heart healthy" movement was born, which emphasised high carb foods like cereals, by demonising fat.
It would be better for the grain growers if you ate animals that were fed grain, as this process is less energy efficient. This is a lousy conspiracy theory.
My grandfather asked me to go golfing with him when I was about 7. There was some conversation among the adults concluding that, based on my age only, I was a hazard to the green and therefore would have to just watch.

I am not one of those people. I disagree with the notion that sports are too serious business to be considered games.
I'm guessing this poll means video games, but I play board games and sports, you insensitive clod. I find it a little weird that "game" has been narrowed to mean specifically video games to the "gaming" subculture.
But the phone numbers disappear after 10 seconds, right?
I'm not sure this really matters. (Caveat: I'm not a fan and haven't read the books since I was very young.)
The BBC Benedict Cumberbatch/Martin Freeman incarnation is closer kin to the show Monk than to the Robert Downey Jr/Jude Law incarnation. Using the name Sherlock Holmes is more of a marketing decision than a creative one. Basically, the original stories donate two things: the pairing of a genius with a more ordinary sidekick and the names.
Meanwhile, there have been decades of stories with Holmes influence, which have suffered very little if at all from using different names.
