1. Just a thought...

I don't have cable so I can't check it myself- but is Fox "News" giving one second of airtime to any of this? I've been to several of these Pro-Democracy Iranian protests, and big media has been pretty much absent from most of them. CNN was at the July 25th protests, and I've seen al-Jazeera at a couple of them, but I would bet the right-wing media barely ever mentions any of this.
