- O__________O 4y agoNot just the CIA — Secret Service, FBI, DoD, DHS, etc — all work with mainstream media; same is true for any large domestic media company in any country working with local governments, including: China, Russia, etc. ___ Source: How the Central Intelligence Agency works with Hollywood - https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0163443709102721?journalCode=mcsa https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/016344370910272... - https://www.google.com/search?q=cia.gov+office+movie+industry https://www.google.com/search?q=cia.gov+office+movie+industr...
- matt-attack 4y agoI think they’re negative only depending on your personal politics. They’re never depicted as incompetent, technologically challenged, or overly beaurocratic.
- rowanG077 4y agoI don't think so. You are right that they aren't depicted as incompetent, technologically challenged, or overly bureaucratic. But they are also depicted as terrorists sponsoring, war mongering, torturous murderers that show little regard for life. I would say those are widely accepted as bad traits and not just my personal politics.
