  • This scene from Season 3 Episode 5 of The Newsroom shows exactly what is wrong with today's "news". People only want to hear entertainment instead of actually educating themselves about the world they live in.

      Shailesh Rana the argument basically boiled down to “take me seriously enough to market this, but don’t take me seriously enough that I have to take any responsibility”.its beyond childish that they expected to get away with defending their product by saying it doesn’t actually work and isn’t reviewed by staff

      theres a reason it isn't. they can refuse to sit down for an interview or get up and leave if they want to. this is why journalists keep things soft because if they antagonize their interviewee, they could lose them in real life and not get the story they want. this isnt because they want to, far from it.

      People will believe anything that would make them feel better about their own life. And it's much easier to destroy someone else's pedestal than to build up your own. The point is to allow yourself standing taller than the other person, no matter how you achieve that. This is why stories about the made-up misfortunes of celebrities are so addictive. They are the painkillers of the destitute.

      It used already-reported events, which made it behind the time. Sorkin laid his left-wing ideology over the production, showing women as abusive hardnuts and men as incompetent wimps. Putting in credible segments like this one here provided the base of the show, allowing "the message" to be associated with solid entertainment. The right-wing DID get it; that's the reason they attacked it.

What the Democrats do is shows like Jordan Klepper's where he allows those R. to hang themselves with their own stupid comments and ideas and Democrat politicians who take those R. to task in committees where they can 'hang' them with their own stupid talking points/accusations, etc. @@tokyworld

    What ruined this show after just 3 seasons is the abnormal concentration of [the show's] co-workers' personal, dating, and sex lives instead of .... _you know, what this was supposed to be about in the first place_ --- *the NEWS.* We didn't need to see the 'minute' details of Will and his girlfriend's [sorry, her name escapes me now] sex life and the marriage. Everyone praised how they did the news -- both in front of and behind the cameras .... *the NEWS,* ... not some asinine boy-girl relationships that had nothing to do with the actual NEWS.
    As good a writer that Aaron Sorkin was and is, he literally screws everything up with his obsessive "need" to show personal relationships that quite literally have nothing to do with the actual stories [running the West Wing and the News], and also his religiosity that he forces onto his public. Watching *_The West Wing,_* I didn't give a flying fuck that he's a catholic nor anything religious about anyone else ...... *this country was founded on SECULAR IDEALS [ **_"god" isn't mentioned even once in the entirety of our Constitution_** ]* and I certainly didn't like being reminded in so many episodes how religion not only is running this country, *_but is also fucking it up royally._*

      I try to explain to my friends why The Newsroom is so highly rated and why they should choose to watch it but I can never quite put my finger on it.
