The other day I was watching a rerun of a popular TV show from the past. Suddenly it occurred to me that this was the most CONSERVATIVE TV show ever despite the fact that it wasn't specifically a political show.
Okay, I'll give you the name: DRAGNET. I was watching the color version that came back to the airwaves in 1967. Detective Joe Friday didn't fool around. He was all business with NO apologies in enforcing the law. Also notable was how he sneered at hippies, drug addicts, or (in the case of the episode I was watching) idiotic teenyboppers who shoplifted strictly to be members of a dopey club.
The Left made a conscious effort to manipulate Americans into thinking their way. They did this via shows like the Waltons which purported to show family values while all the time pushing the liberal agenda. Like being lead to hell by the gentlest talking grandma you ever met.
Her name was Ellie.
Except that Andy Griffith was an avowed Communist along with Will Geer from the Waltons
Probably looked better when she was alive
