Defending 'The Newsroom,' Sorta


For the latest installment of my Culture Club column for Playboy, I stick up for The Newsroom, which may not be great but is certainly better than the vitriolic reviews it received last year. With the new season starting on Sunday, I argue that the show's strengths and weaknesses are all wrapped up together in one undeniable package. (And, I should note, I've seen none of Season Two yet.) Hope you enjoy.
