Homeland is a TV show, for entertainment. No one is happy with a lot of documentaries, the TV shows that are meant to get at facts and not just entertain.

So while I don't want to give Homeland a free ride, it'd be too much to expect more from the show.

I believe entertainment media to be more powerful than people give credit for. But yeah, people should have the freedom to take creative liberties in this context, so we should at least be having an ongoing discourse about it as it fills more of our living experience every day.

> Homeland is a TV show, for entertainment.

It's also an excellent example of propaganda.
