Did you watch this episode? That was a Saturday.
Half of them will be there for the chaiwalla's dissertation about the Loch Ness monster. The rest will be there to talk about the whole end of the week firing thing because Will and the producer lady have been fighting all week about something personal that happened on 9/11.

1. He keeps telling me he's a registered republican, yet he's done nothing to show me that he is. I can say I'm an NBA caliber athlete all day, but it doesn't change the fact I'm an out of shape white guy.
Since when do actions show what party youre registered with? The only thing that should show you if he is a registered republican is his registration form. Seriously that is the problem with politics in a nutshell. The thought that someone needs to have all the same views because of an R or D.

You misunderstood me. My point is that Sorkin is using "registered republican" to hide behind. The left leaning stories aren't biased if a Republican is saying all of this. I used party because the show uses the party. I really just want to see some conservative leaning feelings from Will. He's got to be the balance, to really sell me on the impartial.
I'm glad to see him hating on the tea party and putting some of the gun nuts down, but I want to see him shooting down stupidity on all sides of the aisle because there is plenty of it.

I was giving it a chance, and I will keep watching solely based off of curiosity, but my god. about the only thing I am impressed with is the acting of daniels, waterson, the main chick, and Don. Even Sorkin's "golden dialogue" is fricken horrible. Have you ever met a person in your life that communicates like these people? The only time it feels natural is when Will is irate and screaming at someone.
For those screaming to ignore the politics, how can you even suggest this? First this is what the show is about, they are "informing the electorate." It is all right to admit that Sorkin is pushing his/the liberal agenda for the purposes of the 2012 election. Believe it or not many American voters will take everything this fictional show touts as fact and vote based upon it.
Oh and if that damn producer, i dont even know his name, but the one in love with the blonde chick bu t not dating her. His acting is making me cringe it's so bad. He stares at the ground with this damned half squint confused expression all the time. Every time he speaks it's as if he's got a huge shite blocked up in him.

I don't know how you really understand the political stuff if you don't know what's going on. I don't have demographic numbers with me, but the kind of auidence a show like this would draw is probably going to be relatively well informed.
Dude, it's Sorkin...you had to expect it to be liberal.

Will they just frick already? This is like every other movie/tv show ever. They are going to get together. We all know it...just let them bang so I can not be bored by their story anymore.

I'm terrible at remembering character's names, so I associate him with Slumdog. Also call producer lady "producer lady" because I can't remember her name or where I've seen her (although I know I've seen her in stuff).
I was just saying it doesn't matter how they get in the office on a weekend. Bigfoot was Sorkin's ruse. Nessie is mine.

Right, but he is swayed at the end of that episode to do "Newswatch 2.0" after his doorman dressed him down for his comments on air about immigration. Right after, he's decided he's in for doing the news right.
It's funny I'm arguing this point, because I've been in basic agreement with the POV they've had for every story so far. I'm just noting that Will says he's a republican far more than he shows his leanings that way. Show me, don't tell me.

I hate the blond chick because of the way she's written. Is she an idiot or a genius? I'm tired of her being both.
Posted on 7/18/12 at 10:22 am to hendersonshands
why did she immediately start crying when she heard Gifford was shot? Were they friends?

She's just the nervous intern that makes mistakes but has a lot of potential

I don't think paying for that guys cab means he changed his opinion. And the fact that he can "oppose" certain opinions on air when interviewing means hes doing his job.

Bump for tonight. It looks like tonight is about the Wisconsin protests. This may be the tipping point for whether or not this will just the lefts agenda machine for election season.
Hopefully it's not too bad and they can spread the criticism and not alienate viewers.

They would only alienate the plainly ignorant.
