There will always be a more vocal and popular member of a group that "stands out" to people. If we as individuals choose not to give a crow to someone, I assure you that the media will.
The media has already declared people such as Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens as atheist leaders.
They act as such anyway - Why else would you give a lecture to a group you identify with (skeptics) and tell them what you think is true and how they should act?
Exactly.
Atheism consists of a group of people and every group has its more influential people. Just human nature.
