I don’t subscribe to any of the movie channels, but I have to admit that I’m sorely tempted just so I can watch the HBO series The Newsroom. In part because I’m a huge Jeff Daniels fan, but also because of scenes like this one:
For being fiction, there’s a lot of truth in that segment. I’ll bet the Tea Party isn’t very happy with that show right about now.
Too bad it can only be shown as comedy/fiction
You’d think they’d be worried about the show being mistaken for the earlier Canadian show of the same name, which has aired on PBS stations.

What a thought provoking program this has to be. Almost makes it worth spending the extra money to follow it.
I’m impressed that a fictional series can deliver more as a news program than real news programs.
And I can NEVER relate the Tea Party to Jesus Christ. Jesus practiced more on defending the weak. The Tea Party practiced more on hating the weak.
