I've watched the first 3 episodes. There isn't much dialog, it's more just long speeches about the down fall of journalism and democracy. Not really my cup of tea, artistically, but it's absurd level of earnestness is fascinating to watch.

Episode two was lousy. It had less over the top overt political agenda and more WOAT interpersonal love story writing. But episode 3 gets back on track in it's over the top political agenda. People are criticizing the show for it, but it's the only interesting thing about the show.

I think making the Anchor republican is intellectually dishonest since he's pushing a left of the democratic party political agenda.

That speech in the OP was given to the go-hards at the Medill School of Journalism. America's best and brightest aspiring journalists, ya'll.

It saddens me to hear of the show's failure to live up to the potential I imagined as a result of those three minutes.

The best moment is the girl saying "In one sentence or less..."

The second best moment is the girl saying "You know what I mean."

I don't care what you cucumber-sandwich eating aristocrats think. Those two lines are how Aaron Sorkin writes scripts. Gloreus.

I like to think so. I liked USNA cadets. They had an intensity about them that gave me an erection. And I'm not talking about the girls' tailored whites, which gave me another kind of (less erect) erection.

If I was at USNA for 4 years instead of a week, I would jerk off so much more than I traditionally have been known to.
