Well written, if not totally true to life story set in a TV newsroom, with well-developed characters.
The acting and story line is very good, and quite addictive. You feel yourself willing them on, and the tension within each episodes plot keeps you riveted! This series looks back over a serious lawsuit that threatens the continual existence of the ACN network. I love the transformation of the character Will McAvoy; his emerging goodness, and the chemistry between he and his old girlfriend MacKenzie McHale. Great entertainment, and the final episode does not disappoint!
Complete second season of American political drama TV series The Newsroom on Blu-ray (3 discs).
Will McAvoy, news anchor for Atlantic Cable News’s flagship show News Night, had made himself a fan favourite, largely by avoiding any kind of opinion on anything, trading in his personal convictions in favour of ratings. That was until a mini-meltdown at a College Q&A went viral and prompted his ratings to tank and the majority of his staff to find pastures new. Now, Will’s boss, old-school newsman Charlie Skinner, has re-partnered Will with his former executive producer, and former girlfriend, McKenzie McHale in the hope that she will not only help him rediscover his audience, but also his integrity and his passion.
In Season 2, it’s a year later and in the days leading up to Election Night 2012, the News Night team is facing a law suit in the aftermath of a news report about a suspicious US drone strike that turned out to be falsified. Meanwhile in an attempt to get away from the Maggie situation, Jim volunteers for life on the road covering the Presidential campaigns and Maggie’s first field assignment ends in tragedy.
