I heard about this because one of the stars of the show went on the record as saying she was disgusted by how misinformed americans were, due (as intended) by the awfulness of the mainstream media.

I've noticed conservative people's heads explode when you agree with them that the media is horrible from the left side of the spectrum.

they're like... "No... wait... what? How? Media... Liberal... too liberal... support troops... Iraq... Saddam... WMDs... waterboarding not torture... But I thought... no... liberal media. I know it's true."
