But I think Martha's group would be better served to focus its energy on broad issues.

You're right on the money with this. I think some of the protest groups go after high-profile targets just to get the publicity. I guess there are benefits and drawbacks to such a strategy, but personally I think its better to go after more tangible and pressing issues than waste time on insignificant things that are more symbolic than anything else.
