Figured I'd get the ball rolling with this one... my students flooded my phone today with text messages telling me about how this old guy on this new show talks about countries the same way I do.

So I downloaded and finally got around to watching the new HBO flick called, "The Newsroom". I have to admit, I may not be American, but when Jeff Daniels spoke up with his "human" answer, I quite literally had tears in my eyes thinking of so many people from around the world answering in both the honest and the brutally honest answers for their respective countries.

I'm hooked and I cannot wait to see what happens with this program and I hope it does not loose it's edgy confrontational side.

And I so need to find out where my students watch these programs cause they are getting them before me!!!

So my poll here tonight is, have you seen it? Were you impressed?
