Jane Fonda Said Something on Last Night's Episode of 'The Newsroom' - TV - BlackBook

It’s almost as if the episode’s writers (Aaron Sorkin and MTV News’ GIDEON YAGO) were so bored with the first two episodes of the season that they felt compelled to fast forward through six months and just highlight the good parts, only there aren’t any good parts. The events of those 180 days include Maggie (Alison Pill) and her Xanax-deprived love triangle, Mack’s (Emily Mortimer) frustration with Will’s blossoming love life, Will’s attacks against the Tea Party (remember: it’s 2010!), a reference to Inception (remember: it’s 2010!) and some anonymous patron at News Night’s after-work karaoke bar singing India.Arie’s “Video.”

I recapped last night’s Newsroom for BlackBook. Barf.
