Dear Writers Research is important

Dear Criminal Minds Writers,
you might try doing some research because if you had then you would know that Interpol is not some kind of world-police with locations around the world or agents running around. They do have a coordination-office in Rouen, where the paper-pushers sit but that's basically it. The rest is done by local law-enforcement.
All of these Interpol-story-lines crack me up because they are beyond unrealistic and really push the envelop of 'suspending my disbelief'. I am willing to suspend my disbelief but only so far.
Every book-writer would get torn into pieces for sloppy research but tv-writers get away with it? I really don't get it.
