Heh, kinda like War of the Worlds. Those shows really support the culture of fear that makes the real stuff possible. What's odd is that there are so many of them that do that while incriminating the U.S. government. Yet still they support the very culture that keeps the U.S. government from being incriminated. I think it was the Matrix 2, where they pointed out a smokescreen as "just another system of control". As is anything that keeps us sitting in front of it rather than inspiring us to action or lighting a creative fire. So I guess it doesn't matter so much what they are saying as it does the emotion that's transmitted....
