The media doesn’t cover protests. Most local channels are owned by mega corps like Sinclair.

The problem is that information outlets are owned by bad actors.

Fortunately Sinclair only has 1 station in Minnesota, WUCW, which is not one of the big ones where most people get their news (ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX).

I think they're dead last in news market share.

The protests have been all over the news?

Depending on the area. National yes, but look at how local outlets are reporting on them. Lawton OK had one and their local outlets barely covered it par exemple.
