The Time Warner Screening Room was abuzz for the premiere of HBO’s highly anticipated series The Newsroom. Following the screening, guests discussed the show over dinner at Porter House. And there was plenty to talk about: Beyond its dizzying dialogue and political pastiche, the series follows a struggling news team and its quixotic mission to reclaim the legacy of Murrow and Cronkite in the face of a fickle audience, corporate mandates, and tangled personal relationships.

Guests included creator Aaron Sorkin, stars Jeff Daniels and Emily Mortimer, HBO co-president Richard Plepler, Time Warner CEO and chairman Jeffrey Bewkes, Charlie Rose, Woody Harrelson, Lukas Nelson, George Stephanopoulos, Joy and Regis Philbin, and Piers Morgan—making for a guest list just as engaging as the show itself.
