You seem to be assuming many things.
First, you assume that Representatives actually know what they're doing and that they're smarter than the propaganda spread by mainstream media. They're not. Most politicians learn theory - but never practice. They think what they are doing is best and make bets which affect the citizens under them, just waiting to see what the outcome will be. When they find out that their own stupidity and, thus, their very horribly made bets caused great pain and anguish, they then start pointing fingers at one another rather than trying to fix their own mistakes. Politicians aren't competent. Never forget Hanlon's Razor.
Second, you assume that mainstream media and a free internet both generate the same propaganda and ignorance. This isn't the case. Now that more and more people are noticing the inaccuracy of the mainstream media, they are starting to rely on an unregulated internet - which, itself, holds unlimited volumes of knowledge and wisdom. E-Democracy relies on the internet exclusively. An E-Democratic society, as long as its internet is unregulated, won't give in to propaganda like you seem to think it will.
Lastly, you assume that Anarchy is fully destructive and chaotic - always leading to revolution. No. The following should serve as an example of a proper Anarchic society rather than the IDEA of that society you've been led to believe by...oh, what? Propaganda >.> (pot calling the kettle black)
