...taken seriously in the American mainstream media?

That's not the badge of honor some might think.

...feared or marginalized by the mainstream media should be reserved for the badge of honor. Noam Chomsky comes to mind.

I don't know about that. IME Noam Chomsky is pretty much respected by anyone who knows who he is. Granted, that is a relatively small percentage of the public. The only people I have ever heard bash on Chomsky are philosophers who disagree with very specific philosophical views that he holds (innate grammatical knowledge comes to mind).
