The Newsroom by HBO brand new series.. fantastic

I just started watching this is just came out.. and wow, it is really good. Here is a little intro trailer..

The Newsroom Season 1: Trailer

Scene Script: We are not the greatest country in the world professor and that’s my answer..

You, uh sorority girl, just in case you accidentally wander into a voting booth one day, theres some things you should know. We are 7th in literacy, and 22nd in science, 49th in life expectancy,
178th in infant mortality, 3d in median household income, number 4 in labor force, and number 4 in exports. Now none of this is the fault of a 20 year old college student, but when you ask what makes us the greatest country in the world?, I don’t know what the fuck your talking about…Yosemite?

If there is a common denominator for all liberals, it has be hatred for America. It is the one constant that underlies all liberal beliefs. It's the Holy Grail. You should be happy you've got a president that shares your hatred. Enjoy it while you can.

Dammit, IB! That's enough of your insults. I'm tired of them! The idea! Calling CBJ7 a "spastic idiot". That is just wrong. You've overreached this time. That characterization is an insult to all "spastic idiots." How dare you compare them to CBJ7! They deserve better.

The left never portrays the American military in a positive light, because they hate America.

You are most correct. Equating CBJ7 to spastics was demeaning to spastics.

HBO has produced some true gems: e.g., "Band of Brothers," "The Pacific" and "John Adams." But this new show, in the OP, is nothing more that crass, liberal propaganda and one needn't watch too much of it to discern its liberal bent.

It really seems like Hollywood produces propaganda, and then tries to work in enough entertainment value so that people will watch it. A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.

You're right about the John Adams miniseries; it was excellent. The odd thing about the three miniseries you mentioned is that they were all produced by Tom Hanks (Playtone). Hanks is a left winger, but he doesn't seem to be quite as anti-American as most of Hollywood. I wish Hollywood would do more shows like the ones you mentioned. There are so many great American stories to tell. We have so many heros that deserve to be celebrated. We Americans need to celebrate our heroes; it's necessary for our survival.

how anyone can equate a tv show to propaganda boggles the mind

Just like the wingnuts he defends, Joe Blowjob steels his mind against liberal propaganda by only watching Teapublican propaganda. It's the old Teapublicans "burn the books" theory of teaching.

Seriously, to understand anything of moderate complexity, one must study it to a further extent than the Neanderthals fully admit they do on this board..

Well, CBJ7, it's obvious it doesn't take much to boggle your mind. The lefties, e.g., Michael Moore, et al, started this propaganda through popular media during election years several years ago, and you've just been too damn dumb to notice it.
