Today people accept TV drama as being "real"; back then, books were considered real.
But you have confused the issue; "Uncle Tom's Cabin" WAS propaganda! It was in book form. It was not realistic...

For one thing, it reached a much broader audience. The novel, which began as a serial in an abolitionist periodical, sold 300,000 copies in its first year of publication, and a further 200,000 copies on publication in England.

It was a great read and apparently objective, because it showed that all slave owners were not monsters.
