The Newsroom (OV)

Season Two Premiere. Will and the News Night staff are questioned by their lawyer about a story they've aired that's become a network crisis. An on-air remark from Will has him pulled from 9/11 anniversary coverage.

A tip on a story that will ultimately cripple the network starts to become more real. MacKenzie and Sloan continue to push Will on drones as Don urges Will to advocate for Troy Davis. Maggie is un-friended by her roommate. Neal gets arrested.

Will continues his mission to civilize by telling Nina Howard the truth. A new witness to the Genoa story emerges on Twitter, and in New Hampshire, Jim's efforts to have his questions answered continue to fall on deaf ears.

Maggie tries to convince Rebecca she's fine following her shattering trip to Africa with Gary. An Occupy Wall Street protester with a Black Op lead refuses to cooperate with Neal and Jerry after an on-air interview with Will goes poorly.

Will is distracted during his telecast by a phone call and an unflattering twitter post. Charlie gets a visit from a longtime friend from the Office of Naval Intelligence, who has knowledge of Operation Genoa. Sloan deals with a revenge post.

Mac and Charlie score a key witness in their attempt to corroborate Dantana's Operation Genoa story. Will follows Nina's lead to soften his image by making an appearance on a morning talk show. Jim gets unexpected company during his reunion with Hallie.

Through depositions with the newsroom staff, Rebecca pieces together the events that led to ACN's fateful decision to go forward with Dantana's special report on Operation Genoa--as well as the post-air revelations that undermined its credibility.

News Night goes forward with its election-night coverage in what might be its last broadcast with Will and Mac; Jim considers retracting a story; the team deliberates whether to hold off on a story that might impact a tight Senate race.

Season Two Finale. As Election Night 2012 winds down, Will and Charlie await a decision from Reese that may impact their future at ACN, and that of the entire senior staff. Sloan learns the identity of the anonymous winning bidder for her book.
