1. Protests are meaningless without attention |

The MSM has no interest in handing off the power they have gained in conjunction with the rise of the right. They will not cover anything that may topple the current conditions. Budgeting and marketting require stable environments. When the consumers control the market it is more difficult to plan for future budgets.
The MSM finds itself happily drinking from the same trough as the NeoCons. Peddling fear makes for profits and votes in our day and age. Protests threaten the nature of this system by undermining the control. They will never be covered by the current MSM and as a result the activists will not get the attention such movements require to live.
