Oh, so she's not even in a creative department, but a gatekeeping department? That makes the source of her enjoyment even more obvious; She's a kingmaker. A gatekeeper.

She gets to help decide who gets hired, who gets fired, who gets promoted.

Ultimately it hooks on to the exact same thing as being a propagandist, though; She feels she is part of something that is going to change the future.

It's the same feeling that you see at the Oscars or any screen actors guild gathering - where they all nod and confirm to eachother that its their great calling to change the world through their job.

Same deal.

I almost guarantee she doesn't even consciously realize there's anything wrong in it.
