Trailer Time: The Newsroom Season Two #2 – HBO (2013)

I make no bones about it, I think Aaron Sorkin is one of (if not THE)  best writers working in any medium in the last quarter century.  From his play A Few Good Men, to the films (The American President, A Few Good Men, The Social Network, Charlie Wilson’s War, Moneyball, etc.), but most especially in his TV work (SportsNight, Studio 60, The West Wing and The Newsroom) he demonstrates a mastery of the English language that no other writer can so deftly wield.  The Newsroom, Sorkin’s current HBO series about a disaffected news anchor becoming re-engaged with real journalism, will begin its second season July 14th.  This is the second trailer released for the new season.  I’m hip-deep in the blu ray for the first, and I could not recommend it more highly.  It’s awesome to have Sorkin writing TV again.
