So not only do the moderates need to risk standing up against the terrorists, they sadly also need to risk being widely ignored by the media for doing so.

This is where I believe inter-faith activities can be beneficial (on both sides)... A friend of mine was involved in such a program and found it quite interesting... And although behind the scenes, it is these types of programs that have a greater impact over the long term towards building understanding.
