American exceptionalism

This might be relevant. It's a fictional show but it has many moments where I feel it means something. This is the opening scene. Stick with it. Will McAvoy, the character, caught a lot of flack for this 'outburst.' But it paved the way for the show to show real news, based on real news, despite objections over ratings.

Jeff Daniels. Not just Dumb or Dumber anymore.

And if you like what it has to say, I recommend The Newsroom. I've only bought Season 1, but I found it to be quite brilliant. I can't speak for the subsequent seasons, yet.
