Whether or not it is a TV show has no relevence as to whether or not it is propaganda. Perhaps propaganda is too strong a word, but there is definitely a strong pro-neocon bias in the show. You can see it in the way suspects are treated on the show. No one ever talks until after they are tortured. The information they receive through torture is always 100% accurate. Torture is so prevalent and so effective on the show, it portrays an image that it is the only legitimate solution we have to fight terrorism.

Now, like I said, I personally don't care. I like the show, but I'm not dumb enough to buy into its mentality. I've met a number of people who are. If you aren't one of them, good for you.
