Why they hide this in our media ?

Do our media busy with our news to the limit they never talk about the protest outside our countries ?(the Arab world) or do they just did not want us to see what is going on there too? "Quoted from the down mentioned site" 100 March on NYPD 1st Precinct to Demand Dignity;
 Women in Custody Being Harassed, Police Protocols In Question Posted 4 hours ago on Nov. 16, 2011, 12:54 a.m. EST by OccupyWallSt Message from Protestors to NYPD: If you SEE something, a fellow officer violating protocol, SAY something Over 100 people, mostly women, marched from Liberty Square to NYPD’s 1st Precinct HQ at 11pm Tuesday night to demand that all women in custody be treated with respect and dignity by the police. The march was organized after our sisters in custody made various complaints of male officers patrolling the women’s cells, unannounced. We were told that male members of the NYPD were specifically making unannounced patrols by the women’s cells, and by the shared women’s toilet (in plain view of all women and officers)--which is a common tactic used to humiliate those in custody. In the spirit of the Occupy movement, the crowd of 100 gathered peacefully in a showing of strong solidarity with the specific demand that the NYPD issue a formal statement that this will be addressed and that there be no more instances of this humiliating tactic being used. There were no arrests at tonight’s solidarity march. Some chants from the crowd: “All day, all night, occupy women’s rights!” and “Courtesy, professionalism and respect” and “If you see something, say something!”
