If action equals reaction, why isn't Earth pulled into orbit around a communications satellite?

According to Newton's third law, Earth pulls on an orbiting communications satellite with the same force the satellite pulls on Earth. Compared to the Earth, the satellite is not very massive so this force will cause it to move noticeably. Compared to the satellite, Earth is massive, so this force will be too small for the movement to be noticeable.
