Default Minimize MER?

Why is NASA giving such small consideration to the mars landers?
The MER 2 press conference was cut short to show yet another grocery
delivery to ISS. Does anyone, excluding scientists performing yet
another life science experiment, care? I get the feeling that NASA
is trying to minimize MER for unknown reasons. Any answers?


Those of us who remember Progress-Mir remain keenly interested in Progress
dockings. If NASA were to avoid televising them, I'm sure some would start
hatching conspiracy theories as to why.
