The Newsroom
Season 3
The third season of THE NEWSROOM, like its previous incarnations, is a deep-down comic microcosm of the world at large. A tangle of a, b, c, and d plots-the show mixes love, politics, bureaucracy, equality, violence, religion, marriage, sex and hunger and, in the end, makes perfect, hilarious sense.
