I don't think Hollywood cares about people, death & murder, look at the prime time lineup these days.
I think the reason was reason.
Watch the episode "the Fact", it exposes the truth of how the world works today & the political/entertainment complex doesn't like the truth to be exposed. Do you think Dilbert/Dogbert would believe in all the supposed crisis of today as the general publc does?
We've got aa major healthcare crisis, the anecdotes prove it. Grandma couldn't get that hip surgery she needed because of the big bad insurance company.
How 'bout the financial system meltdown, we've just got to bail out those banks or they wont make it & the world will end! It must be true,it was on the news.
And of course Global warming, the evidence is indisputable, Al Gore aid so, so it must be true, don't agree? Talk to the hand.
Dilbert promotes skepticism & hollywood wants sheep.
