The "they don't even know what they want" coverage wasn't an incorrect analysis. It was a large part of the story both internally and externally. OWS struggled with this and the people that wanted to support them also struggled with it. It's not that the media needs clearly defined goals, society does too. To "understand" is a pretty basic need and while we all understood that the system is broken what we didn't know is how OWS aimed to change that. OWS seems a squandered opportunity in many ways. The coverage was pretty fair from what I saw, but then I read most all of my news on it from stuff posted on Hubski.
