ignores them because it's just not *sexy* enough.

I know that many groups have been very active for a long term on this and other issues near and dear to me (anti-war, GLBT civil rights, filling the gaping holes in the social safety net), but they garner little attention.

I tend to think they take the WWJD approach and don't seek out publicity, which has left a vacuum for the religious right to fill with the media.
