FXシリーズ『The Shield』の視聴者が、腐敗した警官Vic Mackeyを彼のキャラクターであるジョナサン・カヴァノー中尉より支持したことに、フォレスト・ウィテカーは驚いた。番組のクリエイターはカヴァノーをマッキーの犯罪を暴く道徳的な対比として意図したが、ファンは彼に敵対した。この反応は観客のアンチヒーローへの愛着を浮き彫りにした。
FXドラマ『The Shield』は、マイケル・チクリス演じるVic Mackeyというテレビ史上最も道徳的に複雑な主人公の一人をフィーチャーした。シリーズクリエイターのShawn Ryanは、Internal Affairsの警官としてMackeyの広範な犯罪行為を暴く任務を帯びたジョナサン・カヴァノー中尉役にフォレスト・ウィテカーを起用した。Ryanは視聴者に道徳的ジレンマを生み出そうとし、「まあ、これは観客にとって本物の道徳的ジレンマになるだろう、なぜならカヴァノーが正しくてVicがこれらのことをすべてやったからだ」と述べた。
The television series The Shield originally bore the title Rampart, inspired by a real LAPD corruption scandal, but producers renamed it following threats of legal action from the Los Angeles Police Department. Executive producer Glen Mazzara revealed that the LAPD opposed any association with the show's depiction of corrupt officers. The changes ensured the fictional police force distanced itself from the real department.
