I was old enough when X-Files hit the scene to be highly dubious of it as a means of propaganda'izing issues that I thought were being trivialized - secret government programs, psychopharmaceutical experiments, cover-ups, etc. I was also not at all trusting of Fox as a media group, because in the early days of its existence it was pretty clear that it was a propaganda front for the government.
