Searching for a new show this summer? Look no further. From HBO and the mind of Aaron Sorkin comes “The Newsroom,” a behind-the-scenes look at the people who make a nightly cable-news program in today’s society. Focusing on a network anchor (Jeff Daniels), his new executive producer (Emily Mortimer), the newsroom staff (John Gallagher Jr., Alison Pill, Thomas Sadoski, Olivia Munn, Dev Patel) and their boss (Sam Waterston), the series tracks their patriotic and quixotic mission to do the news well in the face of corporate and commercial obstacles – not to mention their own personal entanglements.
Catch the series premiere of “The Newsroom” on Sunday, June 24 at 10 p.m. EST/PST on HBO.
