I have just read the article and the posted comments. I found that one particular comment neatly excapsulated my views as I finished the article:

Shapiro is not just positing "subversive" messages are being placed in programs; he is reporting that those who create them explicitly state that is what they are trying to do.  Why should that be controversial or surprising?  Art, for lack of a better word, ceased to be about a quest for truth or beauty long, long ago.

I quite agree. Besides which, I have watched a number of programmes by the BBC, aimed at both adults and children, which clearly have a subtext. It's what the Beeb does.

As I say. Hardly surprising.
