Now that I see the fact that they were the first to know everything played a key role, so its not so bad now.

I only wish VEEP came on after this. Would be a great follow-up.

How dare they tell the truth about BP and Halliburton. How dare they.

Pretty much reported it straight. But, I suppose, on TigerDroppings that's "bashing oil companies" and supporting the liberal agenda.

They kinda lost me at some parts in the middle, especially when they were having the conversation in the office. It was way to long. Other than that, I thought it was pretty good. Really liked being in the back room and watching how the news is literally made.

he reviews are bad even from the liberal outlets. Check out huffpo and salon.

Sorkin is a big douche and just wants to write a vehicle to get his values out. This thing is transparent. He is creatively bankrupt. Couldnt pay me to watch this crap.

eta: And I friggin LOVE Sam Waterston.




Go back to your room and read The National Review and put on your Lee Greenwood album. This board is off the charts.

So she was in the audience at the beginning? This show could be decent.
