centers on a cable news anchor (Jeff Daniels), his new executive producer (Emily Mortimer), his newsroom staff (John Gallagher, Jr., Alison Pill, Thomas Sadoski, Dev Patel, Olivia Munn) and their boss (Sam Waterston).
Per the official show description, the revival
centers on «the eponymous broadcast
news legend, played by Candice Bergen, and her biting take
on current events, now in a world of 24 - hour
cable, social media, «fake
news» and a vastly different political climate.»
