Has the Hearst family ever been portrayed in a positive light in film or television?

Deadwood prompted this, btw.

Paul Schrader filmed a dramatisation of Patty Hearst's kidnapping, brainwashing, terrorist activities and trial in the film Patty Hearst. I haven't seen the film, but I'm told it justifies her actions on the basis she was under the Stockholm syndrome.

And John Milius in TNT's Rough Riders shows Randolph Hearst in a positive light. Of course, Milius sees the American intervention in Cuba as positive, something that could be debated. Still today, my country considers Randolph Hearst a person who took a personal interest in the matter for personal profit alone.
