If you take that point of view you cannot consume any media at all, especially American films, thereby skipping a major and formative part of American culture.

Not in the least bit true. I consume plenty of media--most of it is truly 'underground', as in, books published by small presses, small-time musicians, independent films, etc.
If a "major and formative" portion of American culture is putrid propaganda, I refuse to subject myself (and especially my children) to it's negative effects. And I especially refuse to give the enemy who hates me any more of my money. Those days are over.
