It will be interesting to see if OWS can pull itself together in some way to reverse the effect of media focus on the the police confrontations and the problems with the camps.

Not sure how that might happen, given the diffuse nature of the participants. But if it doesn’t, the recent spike in focus on inequality will likely recede to background noise.

Same as it ever was.

I think the OWS brand and concept is too damaged. The same people will be back in the spring with something different.
