I had to stop looking at Facebook, I skip news for a week, I only watch news on the evening comedy shows ... it was overwhelming. I wanted to sit in the corner of the closet with my grandma's handmade quilt over my head. The two worst surprises were how fast things can change and second, how silent a whole party can stay protecting party and money over country and citizens. I had no idea our country and government were so fragile.
I miss the real [news] drama of the show --- and the "back stage" scenes of how a newsroom might just work together. But, in my opinion, what brought the show down after only 3 seasons was the over-abundance of *personal romances* and too much [positive] religion and smoking in it.
Someone wave a magic wand and bring back the ultimate show: a world where Sports Night and Newsroom are two shows for the same network in the same building.
Sounds like there at least one good journalist coming in the industry in the future. Good to hear. :) I'd love to switch the number of episodes between GoT and Newsroom. GoT is fun, Newsroom was important.
aj sujit what, being a journalist? I think it's more important now than ever to take up a profession that informs and educates the public, and helps shapes opinions that matter.
Fahmim Ferdous I agree that it's important. I meant is it practical to be a greater fool. Hostility towards people with different opinions is increasing, irrespective of how rational it is. all the best.
The irony of the man predicting Osama Bin Laden being up to something dying two weeks later in the World Trade Center tragedy on 911 takes my breath away.

Thank you, Mr. Colbert and Mr. Daniels.
That was an incredible interview with Mr. Daniels. After watching that cringe worthy interview with Omarosa last night it was so nice to hear an intelligent, thoughtful, insightful guest like Jeff Daniels. I hope that he is right in that the good, honest, patriotic Americans doing their jobs in the FBI will eventually catch trump and his minions up in their lies and felonious behavior and we can hopefully start to rebuild our country and maybe begin to be respected and not laughed at globally.

They have been submitting their findings to our Government for years now. So far Bush Jr. and Trump and most Repuclicans in Congress and some Democrats have failed to act due to corruption. As I 100% service connected disabled retired combat veteran, this is not what I fought for, nor my buddies, some who are now dead due to combat action, and exposure to Nuclear Radiation. Trump and Bush Jr to me are simply DRAFT DODGERS, who want and wanted to deploy our troops for the wrong reasons for the most part. Sadly most Conservative Americans, backed this burnout of our troops. It's easy to send troops to war when you know that your kids will not be drafted.

he really has a gravitas to him when he speaks on serious topics that makes you sit up and listen. loved it on the newsroom, nice to see he's the same way in real life.
This goes out to our government officials: please keep being our sword and shield, please keep defending our country. Because once this present does all the damage he can to America we will need you all to defend us. I know the president has lessened you in the media and stated that you are our enemy we the people know this is not true. I understand how hard is it to do your job when you are being hate for doing it but like a good parent you must or America will fall and our enemies will win. In time this man will be out of office and we can start to rebuild and it will rise once again in all it’s glory because the people are what makes America great no matter how hard a dictator try’s to tell you otherwise. So thank you from one of the US citizen you help protect.
I never saw this episode. I really respect Jeff Daniels, but this is just another wonderful facet to that man’s character and integrity. As usual, he is wonderful!
so well said Mr Daniels. Your assessment of what America lost is spot on from my perspective as an outsider and I genuinely feel for you America. Jeff Daniels for President
