Preet Bharara isn't The Protester. But he still made the latest cover of TIME Magazine (a sister publication to Fortune).

Bharara is the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, responsible for a series of insider trading convictions that included hedge fund manager Raj Rajaratnam. From the story, written by Massimo Calabresi and Bill Saporito:
