Something I forgot to mention in my mad rush to finish my train of thought was this: I think that the problem (or maybe it isn't even a problem) comes when we falsely attribute inferences of truth to the people who created the work. That part of it isn't true, even if you did draw something meaningful from it. Phrases like "I guess Hollywood is really seeing the light" or "I'm so glad Bill Murray is embracing Christian beliefs" add to this falsehood.
