Let me get that straight (sorry but NY news don't show up very much in Portuguese television)
The press who are against the protesters show that woman (btw, which one, there are two in the cat: this one or this one?) in order to "dismiss" the importance of it by portrait them as a bunch of crazy girls who only wanted to expose themselves? Is that?

I can't see the image in the article (maybe someone already removed?) but
I
only found 2 topless pictures in the category:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Occupy_Wall_Street (with 254
pictures). So I must understand that was only those 2 girls, and
therefore,
not all the protesters, so should not be in Wikipedia (unless it causes a
controversy or something, and them can be add to illustrate the
controversy
itself)

She was prominently featured in early press coverage. In fact, mention of
her may have been an attempt to introduce bias into their coverage. One
of the striking things about coverage of the demonstrations is that the
demonstrators have a message when they are interviewed by some people,
but don't seem to when others cover them. Their positions and demands are
something they are developing in their meetings.
