"To be fair, the reason why some mainstream news journalists and many
of the audiences they serve see the Occupy Wall Street protests as
incoherent is because the press and the public are themselves. It is
difficult to comprehend a 21st century movement from the perspective
of the 20th century politics, media, and economics in which we are
still steeped."

this is exactly the point of the great Adam Curtis' short film "oh, Dear"-ism
