Wiki.
The Newsroom is a Canadian television comedy-drama series which ran on CBC Television in the 1996β97, 2003β04 and 2004β05 seasons. A two-hour television movie, Escape from the Newsroom, was broadcast in 2002.
The show is set in the newsroom of a television station which is never officially named, but is generally understood to be based on CBC's own Toronto affiliate CBLT. Inspired by American series The Larry Sanders Show and similar to such earlier series as the British Drop the Dead Donkey and the Australian Frontline, the series mines a dark vein of comedy from the political machinations and the sheer incompetence of the people involved in producing the fictional City Hour, the station's nightly newscast.
