That raises interesting questions about who chooses and directs the narrative of news.

And if the news viewing public allows that choice to be made exclusively by the news makers, and turns away from matters those newsmakers deem unimportant/dangerous/uninteresting, what then?

So the protestors should pack up and go home, because the nightly news got bored with them?
