Otherwise, [The Newsroom] show you how to know the truth, and also dream. The right path how to do news, seriously is inspiring and fascinating and also damn informative. Aaron Sorkin is do a fuxking great job. Please watch this, you will have a thought or idea come into your mind. So far i never got this feeling on any drama i watched before unless you talk about House of Cards.
Inside the show have one story told by Will McAvoy is really impressed.
March 2, 1955.
A young black woman is arrested for refusing to give up her seat on the bus to a white man in Alabama. Civil rights leaders and the ACLU rush to her side and she will be a symbol of the struggle against segregation. Her name is Claudette Colvin and she is 15 years old. She’s also unmarried and pregnant. Civil rights leaders and the ACLU decide that Colvin is not the best foot forward and stand down. Eight months later, Rosa Parks happens, but during that eight months, a brilliant and charismatic young minister gets the attention of the community and is chosen to lead the bus boycotts. If Colvin doesn’t get pregnant, if they would gone in spring instead of eight months later, Martin Luther King is a preacher you have never heard of in Montgomery.

[The Newsroom] season 1 episode 1 starting from a college girl asking Will a question :" Why America is the greatest country in the world?" Will give a cruel but definitely is a truth answer to a college girl and may be broke her feeling too. Mac give Will a answer card to answer this question :" It is not, but it can be."
In last episode of season one the college girl came to ACN as intern, Will requested this girl ask him again the question. After the girl did ask again :" Why America is the greatest country in the world?" , Will answer:" You do"
Is fuxking inspiring. Don't you think so?
But if you really did not understand why i excited for, please watch this. But if you didn't follow up the latest big news or politic or economic. Is very hard to understand what the show talking about, or may be you hate to read news, than you can ignore what i am suggesting just now.
i'm serious fell in love with this actor who act Sloan Sabbith (Olivia Munn), she is so sexy smart. By the way, the guy who sit beside of her is Dev Patel who acted the famous "Slumdog Millionaire"
below are the answer of Will McAvoy for the Why American is the greatest country, is really long. You can skip it. But i really crazy about this
It’s not the greatest country in the world, professor. You know why people don’t like liberals? Because they lose. If liberals are so fucking smart, how come they lose so goddamn always? And with a straight face you’re gonna tell students that America is so star-spangled awesome that we’re the only ones in the world who have freedom? Canada has freedom. Japan has freedom. The UK , France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Australia. Belgium has freedom! 207 sovereign states in the world in the world, like 180 of them have freedom. And one of them is there is absolutely no evidence to support the statement that we’re the greatest country in the world. We’re 7th in literacy, 27th in math, 22nd in science, 49th in life expectancy, 178th in infant mortality, 3rd in median household income, number four in labor force, and number four in exports. We lead the world in only three categories: Number of incarcerated citizens per capita, number of adults who believe angels are real, and defense spending where we spend more the next 26 countries combined, 25 of whom are allies. But you nonetheless are without a doubt a member of the worst period generation period ever period.
We sure used to be. We stood up for what was right. We fought for moral reasons. We passed laws, struck down laws for moral reasons. We waged wars on poverty, not poor people. We sacrificed. We cared about our neighbors. We put our money where our mouths were and we never beat our chest. We built great big things, made ungodly technological advances, explored the universe, cured diseases, and we cultivated the world’s greatest artists and the world’s greatest economy. We reached for the stars, acted like men. We aspired to intelligence. We didn’t belittle it. It didn’t make us fell inferior. We didn’t identify ourselves by who we voted for in the last election. We didn’t scare so easy. By great men, men who were revered. The first step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one.
That America is the only country on the planet that, since its birth, has said over and over and over that we can do better. It’s part of our DNA. People will want the news if you give it to them with integrity. Not everybody, not even a lot of people…5%. And 5% more of anything is what makes the difference in this country. So we can do better. Yeah, that whole speech did nothing for me.
A nightly newscast that informs a debate worthy of a great nation. Civility, respect, and a return to what’s important. The death of bitchiness, the death of gossip and voyeurism. Speaking truth to stupid. No demographic sweet spot. A place where we all come together. We are coming to a tipping point. Is government an instrument of good or is it every man for himself? Is there something bigger we want to reach for or is self-interest our basic resting pulse? You and I have a chance to be among the few people who can frame that debate.

Last part of my blog article, i have to copy the joke talked by Jane Fonda!!! She act Leona Lansing inside [The Newsroom] OMG!
Moses and Jesus are playing golf. Moses steps up to the tee and hits a beautiful shot 250 yards straight down the middle of the fairway. Jesus steps up to the tee and hooks the ball into the trees. Jesus looks up into the heavens, raises his arms. Suddenly the sky darkens. A thunderclap rings out. Rain pours down and a steam rises among the tress. The golf ball, floating on top, finds its way into the mouth of a fish. Then a bird flies down and takes the fish and the ball out over the green, drops it in the cup for a hole in one. Jesus turns to Moses with a satisfied grin. And Moses says, "Look, you want to play golf or you want to fuck around?"
