Two Teasers For Sorkin's THE NEWSROOM
If ever a talent were engineered specifically for the TV minds at HBO I imagine that talent would emerge looking very much like Aaron Sorkin. The creator of The West Wing and writer of David Fincher's The Social Network, Sorkin is simply one of the most gifted writers in the industry - one who seems to effortlessly balance human drama, comedy and larger social matters while demanding that his audiences pay attention if they want to catch all of what is going on. Sorkin has had his successes on network TV, of course, but cable - where he will be far more free to play to his core audience without having to worry about mass appeal and selling ads - should suit him far better.
And so we come to Sorkin's latest creation, The Newsroom, which is due to premiere on HBO on June 24th.
Boasting a stellar cast - Jeff Daniels, Emily Mortimer, Alison Pill, Dev Patel, Sam Waterston - Sorkin's TV newsroom based effort is looking more than a little bit promising. Check out a pair of teasers below.
