Anyone who champions public virtue or government action is actually corrupt (not even excepting our heroes, which is at least a variation).
This attitude is not all that shocking or uncommon--see this NYT article--and certainly caution is warranted. But how I wish I could see a pop culture portrayal of a public official who wasn't a cop or a prosecutor who was seriously invested in doing the right thing for the right reasons. I know some! It's not made up!
