If the mainstream media overlooked it, its probably not mainstream. Now thats probably partially the fault of the media itself, but I simply have seen no evidence that it exists on the scale that it does when it comes to things like the Imus situation.

It is to be expected that the response to a one-time statement or outburst is going to be different from the response to music by hundreds of artsists continuously playing 24-7 on thousands of radio stations all over the world. I don't think that shows that the anger is less intense or on a smaller scale.
