Overview[]

Acclaimed news anchor Will McAvoy is a apathetic robot who delivers his cable news show with stoic dignity and carefully treading the middle of the road to avoid offending the right and the left, liberals and conservatives alike.

His moderate and apolitical news delivery has won him high ratings and increasingly annoyance and professional frustration not to mention the mockery of pundits everywhere. His carefully managed and inoffensive persona takes a major hit when he has a major meltdown while having a Q & A session with a group of college students.

With his professional reputation in tatters, the majority of his news staff jumps ship and leaves him with an old ex-girlfriend as his new executive producer and a new change in the format of his show: telling it as it is. Telling the news regardless of politics with old school integrity like he used to do. But is it possible to this modern day and age of glitz and glamour to rely on cold hard facts?

The Newsroom was an American produced political-drama TV series starring Jeff Daniels, Emily Mortimer, Thomas Sadoski, Alison Pill, John Gallagher Jr., Dev Patel, Olivia Munn, and Sam Waterston. It chronicles the personal and professional lives of a fictional news staff of a fictional cable company. The series and it's lead actor, Jeff Daniels received a number of nominations and awards for his performance throughout the series run including an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.
