Strange.

Perhaps because the methods are getting tiresome. There is nothing worse than the guy at the game trying to get on tv with some clever sign or acting like a fool. That is basically what many people think of OWS. He might be an honor student that helps old ladies cross the street but his act is a turnoff. What they "stand for" (though it is still debatable that there are arent a lot of things that they support that aren't palatable in mainstream America) becomes secondary when America grows weary of them. In case you didnt notice our society has a short attention span and OWS is getting to be the same old story. You can blame the media all you want but to most there is nothing really tangible changing because of OWS.
