00:01:16,034 Oh, God. Fred, what happened?
00:01:24,877 So, that's it?
00:01:28,005 Motherfuck, we're destroyed.
00:01:34,553 No, I'll tell him.
00:01:57,868 Someone better be dead, buddy.
To be grammatically correct, we need to write "he HAD better be...". The constructions such as "he better be..." are very informal, and only used in spoken English. |
00:02:31,193 Mm-mmm.
00:03:28,125 Shit.
00:03:47,394 Following that, you'll interview Gerard Thompson,
00:03:49,938 Art Department at Vanderbilt, to discuss a recently resurfaced Van Gogh.
00:03:54,151 I'm scheduling an hour to go over your speech for Friday night.
00:03:56,445 I think it's gonna run over though. I'm gonna push your drinks with Jane Fonda.
00:03:59,698 Next up,
The same as "up next" - (The news) is coming next, is the next thing that will be shown! idiom. |
00:04:00,782 you'll interview the senator to discuss her book on policy-making
00:04:03,410 and why it's broken.
00:04:04,494 You need to do your final fitting for your gown for Friday.
00:04:06,955 They're gonna bring it to the studio today.
00:04:09,041 And if you ever want the senator on the show again...
00:04:12,669 You have a parent-teacher night at Lizzy's school next week.
00:04:15,088 Chip's trying to get ahold of you. Something urgent.
to get ahold — to manage to find, contact, or obtain someone or something |
00:04:51,750 Oh, my God.
00:04:53,752 Who died?
00:05:08,892 Oh, my God. Jesus, would you turn this off?
00:05:11,895 He's been singing about the same fucking plane crash the past 50 years.
00:05:14,273 Everybody's still dead. Time to move on.
00:05:16,400 - Am I right, Joe? - Yep.
00:05:17,943 Hey, watch the bumps. I'm doing my eyeliner.
00:05:19,778 I'm...
00:05:21,029 And, Alan, what is this anyway? What is this bullshit?
00:05:23,532 What exactly is bullshit this time? What is it?
00:05:25,534 This stupid idea that we're gonna convince the world's coal-fired power plants
00:05:29,162 to invest in carbon capture without linkage.
without linkage — without the analysis of arguments within a set of events |
00:05:31,123 Oh, my God, Jesus. Can we please not have this linkage debate again?
00:05:33,584 - What? - It's not about linkage.
00:05:34,668 This is about a protest and how the town is divided.
00:05:36,211 - That's what this is about. - Yes, I know.
00:05:37,588 Who went through all the burgers?
go through something — to use, spend, or eat all of something, especially quickly. He'd gone through all his money by the end of the first week of his holiday. |
00:05:39,047 - No. - Here, Joe. Have my french fries.
00:05:41,008 - Thank you. - They're cold, but don't complain.
00:05:42,426 How many burgers did you eat, Joe?
00:05:44,052 By the way, okay, so we're gonna talk about how the town's divided.
00:05:46,805 But we're also gonna slip in how safe carbon capture is.
00:05:49,933 Mm-hmm.
00:05:51,018 What? You put it in the copy.
00:05:53,103 This is not my agenda, Bradley, okay?
00:05:55,480 I'm just a liberal Harvard longhair who cut his hair short for this job.
00:05:57,983 This is a stepping-stone for me. I play by the rules.
stepping stone — an action or event that helps one to make progress towards a specified goal. play by the rules — follow what is generally held to be the correct line of behavior. |
00:05:59,735 The truth is the truth, whether you're writing for <i>The Bumfuck Gazette</i>
00:06:01,695 - or <i>The New York Times</i>. - Shit.
00:06:02,863 - I hope we made the right turn. - By the way,
00:06:04,114 that was an award-worthy shoehorning of the word "Harvard" into the conversation.
shoehorning — force into an inadequate space. |
00:06:07,075 Okay, you guys, can we please...
00:06:08,410 I swear, Joe. Everybody who's ever been to Harvard can make an entire conversation
00:06:12,080 out of the word "Harvard," like, "Harvard, Harvard, Harvard?"
00:06:14,291 Harvard, Harvard, Harvard.
00:06:16,376 Are we gonna keep doing this? How long is this gonna go on for?
00:06:18,587 Holy shit. Mitch Kessler just got fired off <i>The Morning Show.</i>
00:06:21,924 - What? - Wait, what? What the hell happened?
00:06:23,842 Let me see.
00:06:25,469 One less idiot to peddle soft news to the masses.

00:07:06,510 She knows. We're reworking the whole show. We are live in 90 minutes.
00:07:11,014 Buckle up. Layla's working on new copy. Get it to Alex A.S.A.P.
00:07:14,601 Got it.
00:07:17,938 We had no choice. It was multiple complaints of sexual misconduct.
00:07:21,942 How multiple? Who? When?
00:07:25,612 I don't know. It's confidential. It leaked to the <i>Times</i> overnight.
00:07:29,867 How?
00:07:31,076 I have no clue who leaked it. I fucking wish I knew.
00:07:35,414 I'm trying to deal with this quietly.
00:07:40,502 Shit. Okay. HR has been looking into it for a few weeks. I didn't want...
00:07:45,966 I didn't wanna drag you in. I was trying to protect you, Alex, okay? Before you...
00:07:52,514 You knew about this, and you didn't tell me?
00:07:54,391 What am I? Some fucking PA from Idaho who doesn't need to know what's going on?
00:07:57,561 Alex, I was trying to respect your space...
00:07:59,771 - My space. - ...like you asked me to,
00:08:01,190 so that you can go out there every morning and do what you do,
00:08:03,442 what America needs you to do.
00:08:04,651 Oh, fuck you, Chip. Fuck you. Don't drag America into this.
00:08:07,529 They've got enough shit to deal with.
00:08:09,698 This affects me, okay? My on-air partner, my TV husband...
00:08:16,538 is a sexual predator now?
00:08:19,791 What part of you thought that I should not have been involved in this conversation?
00:08:24,588 You think chemistry just comes in a bottle,
00:08:26,381 and we go out and we buy another one at Whole Foods?

00:08:30,969 Charlie Black's office. Please hold one moment.
00:08:32,304 Rena. Where is he? We need to discuss how we're handling the show today.
00:08:35,097 He's in there with her. And he said no interruptions.
00:08:37,601 Rena, we're live in less than two hours, for Chrissake.
00:08:40,102 Charlie Black's office. Please hol... Oh. Hi. Let me see if I can get him.
00:08:44,650 - Really? Wow. - Really.
00:08:47,653 - Excuse me. - Wow.
00:08:49,112 - My ass. You know that. - True. But...
00:08:50,405 - What? - It's the network... Cory and Fred.
00:08:53,784 - Fabulous. Put 'em through. - Yeah.
to put someone's telephone call through to someone. Will you please put me through to the international operator? When someone puts through someone who is making a telephone call, they make the connection that allows the telephone call to take place. |
00:08:56,662 I got it.
00:08:58,330 - Hi, it's Alex. <i>- And Chip.</i>
00:09:00,165 {\an8}-Alex? Alex, it's Cory here. - And Fred.
00:09:04,878 {\an8}I am just incredibly sorry about this. I feel absolutely terrible.
00:09:08,924 I feel like Mitch died. The Mitch that I knew.
00:09:12,928 And I've only been running the news division for a month,
00:09:14,930 so I can't imagine what you must be feeling.
00:09:16,974 <i>My condolences, Alex.</i>
00:09:18,559 This is so hard for all of us.
00:09:20,102 Look, we're all a family here, and we've had a tragedy. So, we're...
00:09:24,064 <i>Any kind of sexual misconduct will not be tolerated by the network.</i>
00:09:27,568 <i>- Well, absolutely not. - You think you know someone...</i>
00:09:29,820 Okay, thank you, Fred and Cory.
00:09:32,531 But I can't really think about that right now because I've got to focus
00:09:35,117 on what we're putting on the show in less than two hours.
00:09:38,495 - More caffeine. - Thank you.
00:09:39,580 Oh, thank you.
00:09:40,664 That's exactly why you're the pro that you are.
00:09:44,209 We just have to take this one step at a time, right?
00:09:47,129 Can't let the fact that there's hundreds of millions
00:09:48,922 of advertising dollars at stake here... We're not gonna let that...
00:09:51,258 - Fuck you. - ...<i>bother us, because change can be good.</i>
00:09:54,011 <i>And one man's tragedy, it can be another man's opportunity.</i>
00:09:56,638 <i>So let's, fuck yeah, embrace it.</i>
00:09:58,807 And use this to reinvent ourselves, make things bigger and better. Well...
00:10:04,104 Thank God we've got you, Alex. You will carry us through this.
00:10:07,858 I guess that's why they've been dragging their feet on closing my renegotiations.
they've been dragging their feet on closing my renegotiations. Act or work with intentional slowness, deliberately hold back or delay. For example, The British had been dragging their feet concerning a single European currency. This metaphor for allowing one's feet to trail dates from the mid-1900s. |
00:10:13,530 Yeah. Hey, guys.
00:10:15,490 So listen,
00:10:16,742 my gut instinct is to bring the news to America myself honestly.
gut instinct — an instinctive feeling, as opposed to an opinion or idea based on facts. |
00:10:23,165 Addressing the truth is the only way to protect our integrity.
00:10:27,586 <i>So, we will talk to them as members of our family.</i>
00:10:30,297 We will grieve with them. We will go through this together.
00:10:34,468 She's a class act. All the way.
class act — a person or thing displaying impressive and stylish excellence."the writing and the look of the magazine make it a real class act" |
00:10:36,303 Shut up.
00:10:37,888 And if we use this right, this is our chance to get our audience back.
00:10:41,558 I couldn't agree more, Alex. I think you've got the right idea there.
00:10:44,269 <i>Pull the family together.</i>
00:10:45,604 And we'll get a surge in our ratings for a few days. And...
00:10:50,275 I was gonna say that.
00:10:51,818 May sweeps are imminent, let's not forget.
May sweeps are imminent…. “Sweeps week” used to be a live-or-die period of time in television: it was a period when the networks would bring out their biggest and best shows, offer special programs featuring major stars, and do whatever they could to increase their viewership, since the ratings companies (these days, it’s mainly Nielsen), which surveyed them would be calculating how successful their network programs were. It took place only a couple of times a year, so it was even more high-stakes, and network executives waited with anticipation for the survey results to be released. |
00:10:56,949 And yes, yes. We can discuss who we're gonna be putting in Mitch's chair...
00:11:04,706 today.
00:11:06,458 But I am addressing America up top on my own.
00:11:09,670 Like we have a choice.
00:11:11,088 <i>I don't want anyone sitting in Mitch's chair.</i>
00:11:13,507 Not during this. That's mine.
00:11:34,319 I can't feel anything.
00:11:37,906 Don't worry. I'll be with you.
00:11:40,242 You'll get out there, and you'll feel it. You'll find it, like you always do.
00:12:40,302 - Bradley. - What?
00:12:41,428 I'm telling you something. It's for your own good.
00:12:43,722 What?
00:12:45,807 You're awful.
00:12:48,143 Blow me, Alan. Just because I push back?
push back — disagree with or oppose an action or proposal. |
00:12:50,562 You don't push back. You incinerate. Everyone says it.
incinerate = destroy |
00:12:53,732 You fight everyone on everything.
00:12:55,275 Well, there's a lot of sloppy work done around here, mainly by you.
00:12:58,820 You know that anchor opening on the late hour?
00:13:01,782 They're giving it to Sarah.
00:13:05,160 Sarah?
00:13:07,287 The world's only conservative lesbian who weirdly looks like Mary Hart
00:13:10,791 and has also been at the channel three years less than me?
00:13:14,419 People like her. It's not a crime, you know?
00:13:16,672 Gotcha.
00:13:18,090 Hey, just do yourself a favor. Try to be more agreeable, for Chrissake!
00:13:22,052 I am fucking agreeable!
00:13:24,847 Coal creates jobs! Coal creates jobs!
00:13:28,308 Coal creates jobs! Coal creates jobs!
00:13:31,228 Coal creates jobs! Coal creates jobs!

00:13:41,780 No more coal! No more coal! No more coal!
00:13:45,784 Hey, I gotta take this. I got something going on at home.
00:13:48,662 - No more coal! No more coal! - Mom, hold on.
00:13:51,874 <i>Hey, honey. You sound like you don't want to talk.</i>
00:13:53,500 Hold on, Mom. I'm doing my job at a protest right now. What's going on?
00:13:57,045 <i>A protest? Is everything safe?</i>
00:13:59,006 I'm at a coal mine. No, I'm safe. Is Hal okay?
00:14:02,634 <i>He's doing just fine.</i>
00:14:04,052 Mom, speak up. I can't hear you.
00:14:05,679 <i>You sound really busy. I just wanna let you know I brought your brother home.</i>
00:14:09,558 You did not.
00:14:10,642 <i>Don't take that tone. You sound like a bitch, honey.</i>
00:14:13,562 - I'll talk to you later. - No more coal! No more coal!
00:14:16,607 - Joe! Jesus. Fuck. - No more coal! No more coal!
00:14:19,985 Joe. Hey.
00:14:21,069 - Over here. - Okay. God.
00:14:23,238 - Yeah. Sorry about that. - Okay, Bradley, this is Jenna Macantire,
00:14:26,283 - she's protesting mines. - Hey.
00:14:27,576 This is Bob Stephens. His family's been in the mining business for generations.
00:14:30,621 All right. I got it.
00:14:32,372 I'm gonna need a wide shot, okay? And then we'll go on three and two, one.
00:14:37,920 - Hey! You okay, Joe? - Yeah.
00:14:40,631 Hey. What are you doing?
00:14:41,798 Let go of me, fake news bitch!
00:14:43,258 - What? - Get off of me.
00:14:44,343 What did you fucking call me?
00:14:45,469 Called you a fake news bitch is what I called you.
00:14:47,054 Oh, yeah? I'm fake news? What's the real news then?
00:14:49,389 You tell me five facts about coal, and I'll let you go.
00:14:51,433 I don't have to tell you shit, lady.
00:14:52,726 You knocked down my cameraman. Otherwise I'm gonna have you arrested for assault.
00:14:55,687 I bet you don't know jack shit about coal.
jack shit — anything at all |
00:14:57,689 You're just out here trying to raise some hell.
00:14:59,399 Go! Tell me!
00:15:00,526 Coal is a cheap fuel.
00:15:01,610 Wrong! What else?
00:15:03,612 I don't know. It's easy to get for people.
00:15:05,280 Wrong! What else?
00:15:06,740 It makes jobs for everybody. Everyone's happy.
00:15:08,450 Yeah, so does death, okay? You think that's a good idea?
00:15:11,078 - No, I don't... - If it's so positive,
00:15:12,663 why do you think all these people are out here protesting?
00:15:14,748 I don't know. Because they think it's dangerous or...
00:15:16,458 Do you think it's dangerous?
00:15:17,793 Do you even know what's in coal ash? Arsenic, copper, lead, mercury, uranium.
00:15:23,507 That is some toxic shit. And what about jobs?
00:15:26,677 How many jobs have been lost in the last ten years?
00:15:28,762 - I don't know. - Huh?
00:15:29,763 Thousands! Thousands of fucking families knocked on their asses.
knock (one) on (one's) ass - To cause one to become overwhelmed with emotion, bewilderment, or astonishment. Ex: The whole movie was very good, but that ending straight up knocked me on my ass! |
00:15:34,726 And it's just a big wheel that goes around.
00:15:36,520 Liberals add sanctions. Conservatives remove those sanctions.
00:15:40,148 And they just keep fighting 'cause all they wanna do is hear themselves talk.
00:15:43,318 And they all want to be right. And they all wanna win.
00:15:45,737 And that's all they fucking care about. And there's a human cost!
00:15:49,324 And it's exhausting!
00:15:51,201 I'm exhausted!
00:15:52,911 Okay. Okay. Okay, Jesus.
00:15:56,582 Get off me.
get off me — an exclamation used when another person has challenged your stance (position) on something and been proven wrong |
00:16:04,423 Don't knock over old men.
knock over — to push or strike someone or something, causing the person or the thing to fall. |
00:16:06,008 I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:16:09,970 Okay.
00:16:11,054 - Okay, let's take it away. - I'm ready. I'm ready.
00:16:13,348 Okay, are y'all ready?
00:16:16,560 In three, two, one.
00:16:19,980 Hi. I'm Bradley Jackson at Lachlan Coal Mine, reporting to you today.
00:16:23,901 This coal mine is reopening after closing four years ago
00:16:27,404 due to declining coal demands and rising regulatory threats,
00:16:31,116 costing this area thousands of jobs.
00:16:37,122 It's time.
00:16:39,082 I'm ready.
00:17:06,818 I revised the copy myself.
00:17:08,194 I gave my copy. I know what I'm saying.
00:17:12,281 Yeah.
00:17:21,208 - Mm. - Okay. Last looks.
00:17:27,506 Thanks.
00:17:35,347 Okay. There. Thanks.
00:17:38,725 - Okay, clear. - Check the time.
00:17:40,435 Stand by, A.
00:17:43,021 Roll A. Eight seconds to you.
00:17:47,150 Five...
00:17:48,610 Four, three.
00:17:50,946 Two. Start your move.
00:17:54,324 Cue her.

00:17:56,076 {\an8}Good morning. I'm bringing you some sad and upsetting news.
00:18:01,707 {\an8}Mitch Kessler, my cohost and partner of 15 years,
00:18:06,545 {\an8}was fired today for sexual misconduct.
00:18:10,299 All right. Stay strong.
00:18:12,176 <i>First and foremost, I want to offer our sympathy and support to the women.</i>
00:18:16,805 <i>We are devastated that this happened on our watch, and our hearts are with you.</i>

00:18:27,065 <i>because I and the whole team here at</i> The Morning Show <i>are feeling the same way.</i>
00:18:32,863 <i>Shock, disappointment, disbelief.</i>
00:18:37,117 She's throwing me under the bus.
00:18:38,785 <i>And while I don't know the details of the allegations,</i>
00:18:42,080 <i>I understand that they were serious and that keeping Mitch on was not an option.</i>
00:18:46,627 I don't think we need to watch any more of this. Let's prep you for your...
00:18:48,712 Do not touch that remote.
00:18:51,798 <i>We know he was part of our family, of your families.</i>
00:18:57,596 <i>We will all miss that person.</i>
00:19:02,226 But there are consequences in life.
00:19:05,395 As a woman, I can say there often aren't enough of them.
00:19:10,359 And while I will miss the Mitch I thought I knew with all of my heart...
00:19:20,661 I am proud to work on a network
00:19:23,413 <i>and live in a country that upholds consequences.</i>
00:19:29,169 What a load.
00:19:30,712 {\an8}<i>So, please have patience with us as we find our footing in the next few days.</i>
find footing — getting stable again find (one's) feet — To reach a level of comfort in a new situation. It took a while, but I've finally found my feet in my job. I know you're nervous, but all freshmen are—you'll find your feet at school, don't worry. |
00:19:35,926 {\an8}She's on fire today.
00:19:37,135 {\an8}<i>We will bring you the news, as always.</i>
00:19:39,513 Too bad we can't always throw a crisis at her.
00:19:41,557 - It turns her lights on. <i>- We will share any information</i>
00:19:43,267 <i>we have with you.</i>
00:19:45,060 {\an8}You are part of this family. And we will get through this together.
00:19:51,733 {\an8}We'll be right back.
00:19:55,112 We're back in 30.
00:19:56,989 It's good. Good.
00:19:58,323 That was beautiful.
00:19:59,867 Roll A. Back in two minutes.
00:20:02,411 Drop down to 40%. Hold.
00:20:05,998 Yeah, that's perfect.
00:20:07,541 - Here are some tissues. - No, I don't need it.
00:20:09,001 - I'm good. - Okay.
00:20:35,277 <i>I bet you don't know jack shit about coal.</i>
jack shit — anything at all |
00:20:37,237 <i>You're just out here trying to raise some hell. Go ahead. Tell me.</i>
00:20:40,032 <i>- I don't know, coal... - What?</i>
00:20:41,200 - <i>Coal is a cheap fuel.</i> - Shit.
00:20:43,035 Bradley Jackson. Stop your ass right there.
00:20:46,163 Why the hell am I hearing that you hired Sarah Oppenheimer
00:20:49,082 for the anchor job on <i>America On Point</i>?
00:20:50,751 Don't even. You know what everybody's talking about here today?
00:20:53,795 Two things. Mitch Kessler is fired
00:20:56,089 and Bradley Jackson lost her shit at the protest.
To have a complete mental and physical breakdown as a result of someone's jackassery or assholery. |
00:20:58,383 Climb off me, Jones. How was I supposed to know people were filming me?
00:21:01,637 What? Like it's not the 21st century?
00:21:03,347 I was talking to him about the truth.
00:21:05,349 You remember the truth? Journalism?
00:21:07,643 We're newspeople, Jones. Listen to yourself.
00:21:11,647 I gave you a shot.
give a shot == try |
00:21:13,607 I know you did.
00:21:14,733 When nobody else would.
00:21:16,360 You've been bouncing around for years, and we both know why.
00:21:19,196 - I don't wanna talk about that. - "Two-Fucks Jackson."
00:21:22,157 I was very young. I got flustered. And that was ten years ago.
00:21:26,245 You get too hot too fast, Bradley.
00:21:28,747 I accidentally said "fuck." Okay? And then I got mad at myself and...
00:21:33,752 Said "fuck" again, on live TV.
00:21:37,798 I remember.
00:21:39,091 And there goes the ballad of Bradley Jackson.
00:21:44,054 You know what? Find some other puppet.
00:21:47,182 Find some other person that you can put slanted copy in front of them,
00:21:50,227 that'll go to the coal mine protests, your school shootings,
00:21:54,064 the pregnant lady that got hit by a truck.
00:21:56,191 Find somebody else to be invisible for you, to deal with the world's heartaches
00:22:00,404 and not have any fucking feelings about it!
00:22:03,073 I quit!
00:22:05,534 {\an8}Research shows that sexual harassment in the early stages of one's career
00:22:10,414 {\an8}can lead to long-term psychological damage.
00:22:13,667 {\an8}And specifically, what type of behavior or... or, uh, uh, harassment
00:22:19,214 <i>would cause that kind of long-term damage?</i>
00:22:20,549 Stand by camera three.
00:22:22,217 Jesus, Yanko. Could he be more uncomfortable talking about this?
00:22:24,761 Don't let Yanko talk.
00:22:27,556 <i>As you said, Dr. Marino, this affects so many of us. What would you say...</i>
00:22:32,519 <i>You knocked down my cameraman. Otherwise I'm gonna have you arrested for assault.</i>
00:22:35,856 <i>I bet you don't know jack shit about coal.</i>
00:22:37,691 <i>You're just out here trying to raise some hell. Go ahead. Tell me.</i>
00:22:40,777 <i>- I don't know... - What?</i>
00:22:41,862 <i>Coal is a cheap fuel.</i>
00:22:42,946 <i>Wrong! What else?</i>
00:22:45,407 Hannah.
00:22:46,491 <i>Wrong! What else?</i>
00:22:47,576 You said you were looking for stories about strong women tomorrow.
00:22:49,828 Check this out.
00:22:50,954 <i>If it's so fucking great, why are these people are out here protesting?</i>
00:22:53,707 <i>- I don't know. They think it's dangerous. - Do you even know what's in coal ash?</i>
00:22:56,168 - Who is this? - <i>Let me help you out.</i>
00:22:57,878 Bradley Jackson, some conservative correspondent for SENN.
00:23:01,340 She's fucking funny, but also resonates some truth.
00:23:06,136 And the weary voice of America speaks out.
00:23:09,806 It's like a little piece of performance art.
00:23:11,391 <i>Thousands. Thousands of jobs have been lost.</i>
00:23:16,313 They can't do this to me. It's illegal.
00:23:19,650 They can't just take my life away based on hearsay.
hearsay — information received from other people that one cannot adequately substantiate; rumor. |
00:23:21,985 They have documented complaints, Mitch. We have to deal with the reality...
00:23:24,780 Documented complaints about what? That I had affairs? Since when is that a crime?
00:23:28,742 No, no, no, no. No. I'm... I'm not proud of it, but what the fuck?
00:23:32,538 I didn't invent extracurricular sex.
00:23:34,540 What is happening here?
00:23:36,083 The network that I gave 20 years of my life plus is now locking me out.
00:23:41,296 Throwing me to the wolves.
00:23:42,631 They won't even engage in a discussion with me?
00:23:44,675 Listen, take it easy. Don't get all worked up...
Don't get all worked up = don't get angry |
00:23:46,760 "Don't get all worked up"? Are you kidding me?
00:23:48,971 My life just ended for no good reason, and I should stay calm?
00:23:53,976 You know what? I didn't rape anybody!
00:23:59,147 I didn't fire anybody. I didn't jizz into a plant in front of somebody.
00:24:03,110 You know what I did? I fucked a couple of PA's and assistants.
00:24:06,488 Big fuckin' deal. They liked it. I mean, who are we kidding?
00:24:10,325 Everything's changed, but they forgot to send me the memo.
00:24:13,829 Since the dawn of time, men have used their power to attract women.
00:24:17,207 And now let's bust Mitch Kessler's head over it.
00:24:20,711 Mitch, let me make you a drink.
00:24:22,296 I didn't hold a gun to anybody's head. It was consensual.
00:24:26,175 Most of them came on to me.
00:24:27,843 One of them actually told me that I taught her how to have good sex!
00:24:32,055 And now, that stupid, comedy weather fuck is in my seat. No fucking way!
00:24:38,020 Come on. Fuck you! Fuck you!
00:24:43,317 God.
00:24:44,943 You little motherfucker!
00:24:47,196 God damn it!
00:25:04,338 Okay.
00:25:07,716 We're gonna fight this.
00:25:11,053 We're gonna come up with a plan, and we're gonna fight this.
00:25:13,680 Okay. Okay.
00:25:20,145 I'm picking up the kids from school and taking them to the Hamptons.
00:25:25,192 I'm divorcing you.
00:25:28,111 I haven't liked you for a while anyway.
00:25:32,783 Goodbye.
00:25:34,243 Come on, Paige.
00:25:37,454 Fuck!
00:25:44,670 - Who is it? - It's me.
00:26:02,354 You did great. Yanko was a lot of work. It was a bad call from Cory.
00:26:05,315 You think?
00:26:06,400 We better have our shit together when the network jerk-offs get here today.
00:26:11,405 And I don't want that new guy from the entertainment division
00:26:14,700 making the call about who sits in that chair next to me.
00:26:17,160 Because I have to carry their ass!
00:26:21,415 The guy's a fucking moron.
00:26:23,959 They should never have made him the head of the news division.
00:26:27,546 And I wanna know every idea of who they're going after for that chair.
00:26:31,592 We're precarious enough in the ratings.
00:26:33,719 Okay. I understand.
00:26:34,803 Well, you better, 'cause this is all your fault.
00:26:36,972 You are the EP. The show is slipping on your watch.
00:26:40,184 And now that shit.
00:26:43,020 You know I don't control everything, Alex.
00:26:44,771 Well, you're supposed to. That's your job.
00:27:03,707 All right, hot soup coming through. Hot soup coming through.
-Hot soup! Coming through! - The expression is to get or to be in hot water, meaning to be in trouble with the authorities. A different expression, In the soup means in great difficulties, like someone who has fallen overboard ( from the soup, a slang word for the water around a boat). To be in hot water To get in hot water To land in hot water To find oneself in hot water To be in a dangerous situation, or a difficult situation where you are likely to be punished. 'She sent quite a few emails complaining about her boss. Someone forwarded them to the boss - she's in hot water now!' To be in the soup This idiom is similar in meaning to 'to be in hot water.' It means: to be in a dangerous situation, or a difficult situation where you are likely to be punished. |
00:27:08,712 I just wanna say this.
00:27:11,465 As long as I am the president of the UBA news division,
00:27:14,510 behavior such as that exhibited by Mitch Kessler will not be tolerated.
00:27:18,680 Out of respect for those who have suffered,
00:27:20,474 I'll be making no further comment at this time.
00:27:23,018 Let's get PR back on the phone. I need to know how our response is landing.
00:27:26,355 I need writers and producers, just all senior staff in my office
00:27:30,359 with ideas for how the fuck we're gonna get through these next two days.
00:27:32,653 The bosses are saying...
00:27:33,737 Jesus, Joel. Pick a side.
00:27:35,405 I'm on your side.
00:27:36,490 Of the fucking hallway. Jesus.
00:27:38,075 Okay. They're saying they want this week to land somewhere between repudiation
repudiation — rejection of a proposal or idea. denial of the truth or validity of something. |
00:27:41,662 and navel-gazing, whatever the fuck that means. I have no idea what they're…
navel-gazing: self-indulgent or excessive contemplation of oneself or a single issue, at the expense of a wider view. the activity of spending too much time considering your own thoughts, feelings, or problems |
00:27:44,456 I'll be back A.S.A.P. Can you survive without me?
00:27:46,083 Yes. Text me as soon as you know.
00:27:47,417 - Where was I? - Repudiation and navel-gazing.
00:27:49,336 Data and Research. What the fuck? Why aren't they calling us back? Okay.
00:27:52,005 We need that huddle. We need it right now.
00:27:53,715 And lastly, just get the entire talent team up here, okay?
00:27:57,219 We need to start preparing our long-term strategy. You're getting all this, right?
00:28:00,347 Oh, I'm sorry. I wasn't listening.
00:28:02,516 Oh, you know what? That is not funny. Fuck you and f...
00:28:06,061 Cory. Uh, hey.
00:28:08,856 Is, uh, now a good time?
00:28:10,691 I wasn't expecting you till... Yes. Yeah.
00:28:14,152 Well, you know. When the <i>Exxon Valdez</i> hits the reef
00:28:16,613 and spills ten million gallons of your oil into the water,
00:28:19,241 you kinda drop whatever you're doing and fly to Alaska.
00:28:21,702 Of course you do. Yeah.
00:28:23,036 And if I might exhaust the metaphor,
00:28:25,330 you don't leave until you make sure
00:28:28,166 that every last salmon and sea otter is scraped clean.
00:28:32,546 So, we're gonna clean some fuckin' sea otters, Chip, right?
00:28:37,259 And we're not gonna like it, and neither are the otters.
00:28:40,804 But I'm gonna be with you, side by side, until we get it all done.
00:28:44,308 No matter how long or how much soap it takes.
00:28:49,229 - Well, I'm excited. - Makes two of us. Let's go.
that makes two of us — one is in the same position or holds the same opinion as the previous speaker. "“I haven't a clue!” “That makes two of us.”" |
00:28:52,316 Miles to go before we sleep.
00:28:54,318 I've already called marketing, and they're on their way down right now.
00:28:59,990 We know you already discussed this with the network PR team,
00:29:03,118 but they're worried about the network.
00:29:05,704 We wanna focus on you.
00:29:07,247 How will America see Alex Levy deal with the fall of Mitch Kessler?
http://www.pearsonlongman.com/ae/azar/grammar_ex/message_board/archive/articles/00066.htm There is a small difference in meaning when a verb of perception is followed by the simple form of the verb, and when it is followed by the -ing form, as in these sentences:
Sentence (a) describes a completed action; the observer saw the entire action of the deer's running across the road. Sentence (b) describes an incomplete action; the deer was in the middle of running across the road when we saw him. This sentence could be paraphrased to read: ".we saw a deer while he was running across the road." |
00:29:11,502 Oh, God.
00:29:12,586 People are gonna wanna know what you did or did not know.
00:29:16,798 Okay, we're gonna work on your follow-up statement in a minute.
00:29:20,469 Your first one was a little too sympathetic towards Mitch.
00:29:23,805 - I'm so... - I know you were close,
00:29:25,641 - but you need to be careful. - Excuse me.
00:29:27,100 Excuse me.
00:29:28,185 All I said was that I will miss the person that I sat side by side with.
00:29:32,940 That's just the truth.
00:29:35,025 I expressed sympathy for the women, abhorrence for the predatory behavior.
abhorence — a feeling of repulsion; disgusted loathing. |
00:29:39,154 I am a journalist. You don't have to spoon-feed me this shit.
spoon-feed - feed (someone) by using a spoon. provide (someone) with so much help or information that they do not need to think for themselves. |
00:29:42,366 This isn't just about protection. It's about opportunity. You know that.
00:29:46,912 Yes, I know that.
00:29:47,996 We're in the middle of a tough renegotiation. This can be good for us.
00:29:51,458 I know, I know. I know that, okay. Okay.
00:29:54,294 So, we're gonna hand out the decks we made,
00:29:57,047 and we will walk through the five-tier response
00:29:59,424 we are going to accomplish over the next few days.
00:30:01,385 In particular at the big event in two nights.
00:30:04,346 This is the worst timing ever.
00:30:06,390 Alex.
00:30:10,519 Please excuse me.
00:30:15,482 Oh.
00:30:16,900 Hi.
00:30:19,236 Oh.
00:30:20,654 I'm so happy to see this face.
00:30:22,948 Oh, my God. What an awesome surprise. Hi, honey.
00:30:27,661 Oh, you didn't have to leave school to come and see me.
00:30:30,205 Oh, actually, my class came into town for the day to see a play.
00:30:36,211 Oh, that's okay.
00:30:37,588 But, Mom, I'm so sorry.
00:30:41,633 I can't believe it. I mean, maybe I just don't want to, but, like...
00:30:44,970 - I know. - I've known him since I was conscious.
00:30:47,264 I know. It's awful...
00:30:49,266 - Yeah. - ...and I'm so sorry.
00:30:53,437 Oh, God. Honey, can't you skip the play and just stay home with me
00:30:57,608 and we can cuddle and we can make snacks and watch <i>The British Cooking Show</i>?
00:31:01,945 Oh, just... anything to make me feel happy.
00:31:05,240 Hey.
00:31:06,700 - Oh, hi. - Hey.
00:31:08,619 - Hi, Dad. - Hey, honey. How are you?
00:31:15,459 This big news, I'm... I'm really sorry.
00:31:20,672 I was texting you all day.
00:31:24,301 I know. I'm sorry. It's just the worst day of my entire life.
00:31:29,765 So exhausted, and I still have these people in there.
00:31:34,186 Al, Al. Why don't I just... I can stay. I could...
00:31:38,565 I mean, I was gonna take Lizzy and her friends for dinner before the show, but...
00:31:41,818 No. No, no, no. You guys go. I mean, I'm here all night,
00:31:45,739 and then I have to go to bed,
00:31:48,492 get up at 3:30 again and again.
00:31:53,330 It's good. Go, live your lives. Looks good, you know?
00:31:57,167 Okay. But text me before you go to bed.
00:32:00,087 - I will. - And I'll be back on Friday for the event.
00:32:03,382 Yes. Ugh!
00:32:04,466 Yeah? It's all right. We're gonna get through it.
00:32:06,760 - Yes. - I love you.
00:32:08,053 I love you so much.
00:32:10,597 - Good night. - Good night. Have fun.
00:32:12,349 Good night.
00:32:16,895 - Hey. - Yeah. No, I can't.
00:32:20,274 Okay.
00:32:21,775 Go, Jase.
00:32:24,528 Bye, Al.
00:32:25,612 Thanks.
00:33:10,949 Hey, honey. What a nice surprise. Just in time for dinner.
00:33:22,002 Mom, Hal is an addict. He is bipolar, and he's an addict.
00:33:25,881 Jesus, Bradley. Have to be so dramatic about everything?
00:33:29,009 Just come sit down. We're having dinner. Hal, turn the music back on.
00:33:32,429 Hal.
00:33:34,515 You gotta listen to me this time, Mom.
00:33:36,016 Are you just upset about that viral video of you yelling at that boy?
00:33:39,061 I don't care about the video. And he wasn't a boy.
00:33:41,939 Do not derail the conversation. Hal is an addict, and he needs help.
00:33:45,609 He's not an addict. He just went through a rough spot.
go through a rough patch To experience or be in the midst of a period of trouble, difficulty, or hardship. Her business has been going through a bit of a rough patch lately. If things don't pick up soon, she might have to close shop. Our marriage went through a rough patch after Frank lost his job, but now, we love each other more than ever. |
00:33:48,320 Mom, he is an addict.
00:33:49,571 Hey, look, I'm... I am an addict, Mom.
00:33:52,658 - I liked your video. - Thank you.
00:33:54,535 But he's better now.
00:33:56,203 He wasn't even there for two weeks.
00:33:58,288 You just had him come home 'cause you didn't wanna be alone.
00:34:00,457 - That is not true. - It's a little true, Mom.
00:34:03,293 Do you know the mountains I had to move to get him into that place?
00:34:06,004 Not to mention the amount of money I spent.
00:34:07,673 - Can we just please have a... - Hey, Brad, Brad.
00:34:09,757 I'm gonna pay you back.
00:34:11,051 - I'll pay you back. - I don't need you to pay me back.
00:34:12,844 I need you to be better. I need you to be safe.
00:34:15,722 Do you have any idea how many decisions I have made in my life
00:34:18,851 - just because I had to take care of you? - Bradley, stop it.
00:34:21,478 How many relationships I've lost? How many jobs I've lost?
00:34:23,688 - I'm sorry... - You are ruining dinner!
00:34:37,786 Jesus.
00:34:40,539 I'll get it.
00:34:42,040 Just... every time.
00:34:47,337 - Yeah? - Bradley Jackson. I've found you.
00:34:51,675 What?
00:34:55,262 Can I help you?
00:34:56,722 Hannah Shoenfeld. Head booker for <i>The Morning Show.</i>
00:35:01,518 You know you have over a million views on your video?
00:35:05,480 What can I do for you?
00:35:07,357 We wanna interview you about why the video is going viral.
00:35:11,403 It's clearly touched a nerve. We'd like to book you for tomorrow.

00:35:14,656 I've got us on a plane 90 minutes from now. We should get going.
To "get going" means to take concrete actions to prepare to leave. It can also mean "to hurry up." |
00:35:18,035 Wait. <i>The Morning Show</i>?
00:35:20,913 The one with Alex Levy and Mitch Ke... That show with Alex Levy?
00:35:25,709 <i>The Morning Show</i>?
00:35:26,793 Mm-hmm.
00:35:28,003 Yeah. Alex will interview you.
00:35:30,797 What? Just because I lost my shit at a protest?
00:35:35,511 Your words spoke to America.
00:35:38,222 Oh, no. I don't...
00:35:40,015 Bradley, some piece of you that is really you came through in that video.
00:35:44,311 People are noticing. They want more.
00:35:50,192 How the hell did you find me out here at my mom's house?
00:35:53,904 We're <i>The Morning Show</i>. We can do anything.
00:35:58,450 I do everything right.
00:35:59,701 Everything they've asked me to do in the last three years.
00:36:01,912 They just don't know what to do with me.
00:36:03,914 And they're making us see this popcorn shit? Fucking <i>Gilmore Girls, The Musical</i>?
00:36:07,918 - Is the world so bereft of new ideas... - Don't act like you didn't know
00:36:10,587 what <i>The Twist</i> was gonna be. I was in that meeting too.
00:36:12,381 - You didn't have a gun to your head. - Why did I get a Master's in Journalism?
00:36:14,174 What's the point of having a PhD in Political Science?
00:36:16,677 Is this what Gabe comes home to every night?
00:36:18,428 Why did they hire me if they're not gonna give me a shot at the chair?
00:36:20,722 - Jesus. My feed is wall-to-wall Mitch. - God forbid there's a serious black anchor
00:36:23,267 on <i>The Morning Show</i>. Not for the Norman Rockwell family of morning news.
00:36:27,312 Tokenism at its finest.
00:36:29,022 You are closer now to the job
00:36:30,399 - than you were 24 hours ago. - They're making me jump through hoops
00:36:32,109 watching the fucking <i>Gilmore Girls</i> sing about how tough upper-middle class life
00:36:35,612 in Connecticut is while a bunch of idiot white dudes eat expensive food
00:36:38,615 on the network's dime to discuss how to overlook me.
00:36:40,659 Yeah.
00:36:44,288 And what the hell kinda name is Lorelai anyway?
00:36:52,045 So this is sort of getting you up to speed.
00:36:54,673 Now, obviously, the hunt for a replacement
00:36:57,259 for Alex is on the back burner, given the circumstances.
on the back burner — having low (or high) priority. "he wants the matter to be put on the back burner" |
00:37:00,804 Other fish to imminently fry.
00:37:02,556 Exactly. But I wanted you to have the lay of the land here
00:37:05,934 - just so you know where we're at. - Thank you.
00:37:08,520 Who knows, maybe this whole thing will revitalize Alex.
00:37:12,107 - I mean, today... pretty fucking great. - Yeah.
00:37:16,904 When she does that, you know, she, like, reaches her arm down that camera
00:37:20,657 and, like, connects with America, and that's when she's brilliant.
00:37:24,494 Agreed. It's just that she's been "brilliant-light" the last five years.
00:37:29,958 And it's shown in the ratings. And I don't know, man.
00:37:33,170 Maybe she's bored or complacent with success.
showing smug or uncritical satisfaction with oneself or one's achievements. |
00:37:35,380 Who cares, really. And now, two of them.
00:37:38,884 We get to find the new marriage for America to fall in love with.
00:37:42,054 - It's kind of exciting. - Glad you're excited.
00:37:44,848 We have to get well ahead of <i>YDA</i>.
00:37:46,517 We can't stand a blow to the news division.
00:37:48,477 Broadcast networks can't stand a blow to anything right now.
00:37:52,397 - Yeah. - It's kinda funny
00:37:54,107 how the entire world of broadcast
00:37:56,944 could just fall off a cliff in a few years.
00:38:01,448 Like, boom. Bang. Lights out.
00:38:05,702 Unless we reinvent it.
00:38:08,205 We're all gonna get bought out by tech unless something changes.
00:38:11,959 I don't know.
00:38:13,043 Tech or not,
00:38:15,045 there will always be a need for reliable, quality journalism.
00:38:23,387 People get their horrible news delivered to the palm of their hand 24/7,
00:38:27,891 and they get it the way that they like it, colored the way they want it.
00:38:31,144 And news is awful,
00:38:33,188 but humanity is addicted to it, and the whole world is depressed by it.
00:38:38,360 That's why what we really need on television right now,
00:38:41,530 it's not news or fucking journalism.
00:38:45,951 It's entertainment. This is just like during the Depression,
00:38:49,079 when people wanted to watch Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dance
00:38:51,456 on expensive sets and live in a dream world.
00:38:54,293 Dream worlds are essential.
00:38:56,461 Depressed people, they need escape, you know?
00:38:59,756 How long do you think the network rode the sexual chemistry
00:39:04,136 between Alex and Mitch?
00:39:06,138 I mean, sure, people wanted them to be Mom and Dad,
00:39:08,432 but people also like to be titillated,
00:39:10,350 and there is some unspoken sexual fantasy to cohosts, right?
00:39:15,230 I get it. I get it.
00:39:16,648 Alex is like Mitch's widow now.
00:39:21,153 She can't provide that, and I know you love her and she is your gal,
00:39:24,364 but, you know, nobody wants to watch a widow get fucked.
00:39:28,410 Yeah. Um...
00:39:33,373 Yeah, it's a cold world.
00:39:35,375 - Well, it's just the world it is. - Mm.
00:39:42,841 - Yeah. - Yeah.
00:39:45,511 Good.
00:39:52,518 Okay.
00:39:55,354 Thanks.
00:39:57,523 Oh, my God.

00:40:14,414 <i>The two were such a celebrated institution</i>
00:40:16,458 {\an8}<i>that journalists nationwide are left clueless</i>

00:42:04,733 I'm gonna go in early.

00:45:11,086 <i>So, it's great to have you here.</i>
00:45:12,713 Oh, and, by the way, I'm Mia Jordan, I'm gonna be your segment producer.
00:45:15,257 Bradley. Nice to meet you.
00:45:17,009 Oh, you want a... You hungry? Did you eat?
00:45:18,760 No. I'm okay. I look forward to you whispering in my ear to stop fucking up.
00:45:25,601 You're a pro. I have no worries.
00:45:27,769 Uh, by the way, have you been to <i>The Morning Show</i> studio before?
00:45:31,398 No, but I've been in the business about 15 years, so...
00:45:33,817 - Oh, wow. - It's kinda familiar.
00:45:36,570 - Anna, this is Bradley. Bradley, Anna. - Hi there. Nice to meet you.
00:45:40,949 You know, all studios are pretty much the same.
00:45:42,951 Huge adrenaline, incredible intelligence, desperate ambition, huge egos.
00:45:48,582 <i>...round and around, 'cause all they wanna do is hear...</i>
00:45:50,626 Guys, please, stop it. Give me a second, please, guys.
00:45:54,004 I just wanna watch this.
00:45:55,881 <i>And there's a human cost! And it's exhausting! I'm exhausted!</i>
00:46:01,094 Yeah. Uh, there is no way that she did not know she was being filmed.
00:46:06,433 - It's really hard to say. - Is it?
00:46:07,935 It doesn't matter. That's not the story.
00:46:10,270 Two million likes and counting. That's the story.
00:46:13,357 Real or not, it struck a nerve. People wanna believe it's true.
00:46:15,817 Yeah. Well, people are idiots. Am I right? That's all we've been proving lately.
00:46:21,114 Okay, Alex, I know this has all been very hard for you.
00:46:23,492 What is that supposed to mean? What? Do I look tired?
00:46:27,287 No. No. You look great. I'm just saying you don't have to...
00:46:30,457 - Do I look tired? - No. Promise.
00:46:32,543 No, you don't look tired. Just get through today.
00:46:34,878 Just do a pleasant little interview that will make America happy, okay?
00:46:38,757 I'm worried about you. Just get through these next few days.
00:46:48,767 Can I have my celery juice, please?
00:46:51,228 Of course.
00:47:01,405 Oh! God, it pisses me off.
00:47:05,158 Oh, fuck.
00:47:10,581 Okay.
00:47:12,374 Oh.
00:47:13,500 I didn't buy a word of it. Not one word of it.

00:47:30,017 Okay.

00:47:43,864 - Ready? - Yeah. I'm ready.
00:47:46,366 Okay. Great.
00:47:52,581 We're gonna have you sit right here.
00:47:55,125 Okay. Thanks.
00:47:56,627 Back in 30, everybody.
00:47:58,170 Okay.
00:48:00,839 - Hey. - Hi.
00:48:05,385 - I'm so sorry. - Back in 20.
00:48:07,179 What about?
00:48:08,722 Just yesterday. That must have been so difficult for you.
00:48:12,976 - 'Cause you worked together for so long. - I'm fine.
00:48:16,980 Okay.
00:48:19,399 - In five, four, three... - Over here?

00:48:26,573 {\an8}An unusual thing happened yesterday
00:48:28,742 {\an8}at a coal mine protest in Hanover, West Virginia,
00:48:31,995 {\an8}when a local reporter's camera operator was knocked over by an unruly protester.
00:48:37,417 {\an8}Let's watch.
00:48:38,794 {\an8}<i>Thousands of families knocked on their asses. It's a big wheel that goes around.</i>
00:48:43,173 <i>Liberals add sanctions. Conservatives remove those sanctions.</i>
00:48:46,426 <i>And they just keep fighting. And they just keep going around and around and around.</i>
00:48:50,138 <i>'Cause all they wanna do is hear themselves talk.</i>
00:48:52,182 <i>And they all want to be right. And they all wanna win.</i>

00:48:57,980 <i>And it's exhausting! I'm exhausted!</i>
00:49:01,316 <i>Jesus. Okay, okay, okay.</i>
00:49:05,863 {\an8}I am here with Bradley Jackson from SENN in Virginia.
00:49:09,366 {\an8}Hello, Bradley Jackson. Welcome.
00:49:11,159 {\an8}Hi. Thank you so much for having me.
00:49:13,704 {\an8}You seem a lot more relaxed today.
00:49:15,789 {\an8}Yeah, well, this is a whole lot nicer than a coal mine protest. I'm not gonna lie.
00:49:19,793 {\an8}Well, so, what did happen that day? Why exactly were you so exhausted?
00:49:25,132 Well, you know, life in general is just sort of exhausting.
00:49:29,636 Mm.
00:49:31,180 Um...
00:49:32,681 but, as you know, we reporters, we see the way the world works,
00:49:38,645 and sometimes you just want to get in there and educate people
00:49:42,900 and stop them from constantly going in circles with their ideas.
00:49:46,195 I mean, it's just so frustrating. It's sad.
00:49:49,865 {\an8}So true. So true.
00:49:52,159 {\an8}As reporters, we are trained to never let our personal emotions enter the story.
00:49:58,582 {\an8}What happened yesterday that made you cross that line?
00:50:02,461 <i>Well, I wasn't even aware that I was being filmed.</i>
00:50:04,922 {\an8}I was setting up for my story, and my cameraman was knocked down by someone,
00:50:08,383 {\an8}and something about seeing him struggling on the ground
00:50:10,844 {\an8}made me want to address the person responsible, so I did.
00:50:15,265 {\an8}Mm.
00:50:16,934 {\an8}You know a peculiar amount about coal.
00:50:20,771 Alex, be nice.
00:50:22,314 Well, yes, I do. I do.
00:50:25,984 I've actually covered a lot of coal mine protests,
00:50:28,654 and I think it's important to know as much about the subject as possible,
00:50:31,657 especially when people are literally fighting each other over it.
00:50:34,284 {\an8}Yes, well, America has clearly connected to that message.
00:50:38,497 {\an8}Why do you think that is?
00:50:40,499 {\an8}You know, I think America is tired of Twitter fighting.
00:50:43,502 {\an8}It's ignorant, and it's contributing to the dumbing down of our country.
00:50:47,256 <i>Parties have created a good side and a bad side for their own purposes.</i>
00:50:51,969 And once you villainize someone, there is nothing left but go to war with them.
00:50:57,474 I know that you work at a conservative news outlet.
00:51:02,145 <i>What side of that argument do you personally fall on?</i>
00:51:06,483 {\an8}Um, the human side.
00:51:10,195 {\an8}What does that mean?
00:51:12,489 {\an8}It means I see both sides.
00:51:15,075 {\an8}But in leadership, decisions have to be made.
00:51:18,203 {\an8}You can't just have empathy for everybody and do nothing.
00:51:21,957 Take it two.
00:51:25,586 Well, say you're president. What do you do?
00:51:29,173 - Well... - Open or close the coal mine?
00:51:31,508 I'm just here to deliver the news to America.
00:51:34,011 That's all I ever wanted to do.
00:51:36,889 So you're a die-hard reporter.
00:51:39,641 I like to think that I am, yes. The truth matters to me.
00:51:44,271 {\an8}What would you say to the idea that it's a reporter's sacred creed
it's a commitment to a specific belief, a profession of faith. It is also called a symbol. The Catechism of the Catholic Church identifies creeds as “symbols of faith” |
00:51:48,650 {\an8}to never let the story become about them?
00:51:51,862 Jesus. Alex. What are you doing? Stop it.
00:51:55,282 I would say I agree with that.
00:51:58,911 And yet this has become about you.
00:52:02,748 Ah, shit.
00:52:04,875 As I said before, I didn't know I was being filmed.
00:52:07,628 This wasn't part of my live coverage.
00:52:10,047 {\an8}Well, there could be some cynical people
00:52:12,216 {\an8}who might think that that was completely set up.
00:52:16,261 {\an8}To what end?
00:52:18,597 {\an8}You're here.
00:52:30,609 Well, there are some non-cynical people, which I believe is most people,
00:52:35,948 that believe the news is changing.
00:52:38,450 And the news is changing because the people who deliver the news,
00:52:41,745 who showed themselves as honest and decent and trustworthy,
00:52:47,167 have in quite a few cases now proved themselves to be untruthful.
00:52:52,422 And as a result, I think people are wanting more transparency in journalism.
00:52:56,802 I think they want to know the person behind the facade.
00:53:00,138 I think they want to trust that the person telling them the truth about the world
00:53:05,727 is an honest person.
00:53:12,985 Like you.
00:53:16,071 Yes. Well, the truth is what we are all striving for.
00:53:21,910 Yeah. It is.
00:53:24,830 {\an8}Thank you, Bradley Jackson, for being with us today.
00:53:27,207 {\an8}-Thank you so much. - Of course.
00:53:29,418 {\an8}We will be right back with a surprise secret about vitamin D.
00:53:33,297 - And we're out. - Stand by to break.
00:53:35,841 We're clear. Back in two minutes.
00:53:41,763 - You're good. - Thank you.
00:53:44,057 Good luck in Ham-Hock, Virginia.
00:53:48,145 Oh, there. Thank you. Okay.
00:53:50,105 - It was great. - Yeah?
00:53:51,315 - Yeah. - Okay.
00:53:52,399 - You were awesome. - Thanks. All right. Thank you.
00:53:54,943 Nice work.
00:53:56,153 Bye.
00:53:59,448 Yeah? All right.
00:54:41,031 Fucking vultures.
00:55:36,128 Holy shit.
00:55:40,132 Whosever in here, get out before I blow your head off.
00:55:42,801 Oh, fuck off, Mitch. It's me.
00:55:45,053 Oh.
00:55:47,139 Shit.
00:55:50,100 Alex?
00:55:51,476 I can't be seen by anybody, so I had my car drop me in the woods
00:55:53,854 behind your house.
00:55:56,356 - You came to see me. - No.
00:55:58,942 I came to tell you that I am so mad at you,
00:56:03,280 and I will never, ever get over it.
00:56:06,366 You left me.
00:56:07,576 Alone on the fucking <i>Morning Show</i>. You left me alone.
00:56:12,164 Because you had to fuck around on Paige
00:56:13,582 because you didn't want to tarnish your little image and just get a divorce.
00:56:16,710 Hello, pot. I'd like to introduce you to kettle.
hello pot, meet kettle - Used to highlight a situation in which a person accuses someone of or criticizes someone for something of which they themselves are guilty. An allusion to the idiom "the pot calling the kettle black," which means the same. |
00:56:19,254 - How can you be mad at me about that? - Are you kidding me? You're so stupid.
00:56:22,841 - You think I'm mad at you because... - Oh, Jesus, beat me up. Beat me up.
00:56:25,761 You really think that that's what I'm mad about? You idiot.
00:56:29,097 I'm mad at you because you're selfish. You're a self-indulgent asshole.
00:56:34,978 And your philandering has fucked me.
00:56:37,606 And I'm gonna lose everything, Mitch. There's no guarantees. Zero.
00:56:44,738 Our star was built on chemistry, and you just blew it up.
00:56:48,992 And why? Why did you do that?
00:56:51,203 There had to have been a million and one women out there
00:56:53,288 who would've gladly sucked your dick
00:56:54,957 who didn't work on <i>The Morning Show</i>.
00:56:56,625 - It's not my fault. - Oh, please.
00:56:58,126 - They were consensual affairs, Alex. - Mitch, you're such a fucking moron.
00:57:02,089 I think that you're jealous because of our history.
00:57:04,091 - Your fucking ego. Oh, my God, Mitch. - 'Cause we had a thing.
00:57:07,970 That fucking ego of yours.
00:57:09,179 You really think that because of the two times you got on top of me
00:57:12,432 meant that much to me that that's what I'm pissed about?
00:57:16,228 You're so stupid. God. Oh.
00:57:36,748 You stole my life with this.
00:57:40,377 You left me in the woods with a... pack of wolves.
00:57:45,007 I live a really strange existence, Mitch, and it's isolated as shit.
00:57:52,139 I gave up everything for this show. Any chance of having a normal life.
00:57:59,354 And you just put me in a position of losing it.
00:58:04,693 Everything. Of having nothing. Of having no one.
00:58:15,537 You're my partner. Fifteen years my partner.
00:58:21,293 And my only real companion, who knew my life in such vivid detail.
00:58:27,216 Because you're... It's your life too.
00:58:30,260 I'm so sorry.
00:58:33,514 We lived a life that we're never gonna get back.
00:58:35,557 And you're not my husband,
00:58:37,267 and you're not my lover, and you're not my family,
00:58:40,312 and now you can't be my friend.
00:58:41,980 Why can't I be?
00:58:43,106 Because what you did was wrong!
00:58:45,442 Alex, you knew these people. You know that I didn't coerce anybody.
00:58:50,781 This is Weinstein's fault.
00:58:52,199 Please don't say that. It's so ignorant.
00:58:53,742 Jesus, Alex. I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't.
00:59:02,167 What happened to your TV?
00:59:05,087 We had a disagreement.
00:59:26,316 I'm sorry you're such an asshole.
00:59:30,904 Me too.
00:59:34,032 I wouldn't use those two words together if I were you.
00:59:44,501 I have to go. I have to leave.
00:59:46,336 No, don't. I don't want you to go.
00:59:49,131 I have to go.
00:59:50,215 - No, don't go. I want you to stay, please. - I have to go. No.
00:59:53,385 I don't wanna be alone.
00:59:54,595 Just stay for a little while. Alex, please, come on. This could blow over.
00:59:58,724 - Oh, this is so never gonna blow over. - Alex.
01:00:02,853 Alex, they were going to replace you!
01:00:06,773 What?
01:00:08,775 They came to me. They said <i>YDA</i> was nipping at our heels in the ratings.
nip at someone’s heels — to be almost as good as someone that you are competing with |
01:00:15,032 And they wanted to make a change.
01:00:18,243 I don't believe you.
01:00:21,121 You're just trying to fuck with my head
01:00:23,749 because you're destroyed and you want me destroyed.
01:00:25,834 - No, no. I wanna save you. - Oh.
01:00:28,462 - Alex, don't go. - I don't believe you!
01:00:30,297 Just stay! I've got a gun!
01:00:33,175 Great! Have fun with that!
