Set against the backdrop of the BOSTON MARATHON bombing, THE NEWSROOM kicks off the season with a highly charged look at the core issue of maintaining journalistic integrity in the era of 24-hour news cycles, while crowd-sourcing and 'citizen journalism' result in the dissemination of misinformation.

Created by showrunner Aaron Sorkin (Oscar® winner for writing 'The Social Network,' executive producer and creator of the multiple Emmy® winner 'The West Wing'), the Golden Globe-nominated HBO drama series THE NEWSROOM follows the 'News Night' team at the cable network ACN on their quixotic mission to do the news well in the face of a fickle audience, corporate mandates and tangled personal relationships. Beginning its six-episode, third and final season SUNDAY, NOV. 9 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT), the series is executive produced by Sorkin, Scott Rudin (the Oscar® winner 'No Country for Old Men ') and Alan Poul (HBO's multiple Emmy® winner 'Six Feet Under'), with Denis Biggs (HBO's 'Entourage') and Paul Lieberstein ('The Office') joining the show as executive producers.

Jeff Daniels (Emmy® for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series) stars as Will McAvoy and Emily Mortimer ('Hugo,' 'Shutter Island') stars as Mackenzie McHale, the show's executive producer.

Other returning cast regulars for the third season are: Sam Waterston (Oscar® nominee for 'The Killing Fields') as Charlie Skinner, Will's old-school boss; John Gallagher, Jr. (Tony winner for 'Spring Awakening') as Jim Harper, Mackenzie's loyal producer; Alison Pill (HBO's 'In Treatment') as associate producer Maggie Jordan; Thomas Sadoski (Tony nominee for 'Reasons to Be Pretty') as Don Keefer, Will's former executive producer; Dev Patel ('Slumdog Millionaire') as resourceful self-made newsman Neal Sampat; and Olivia Munn ('I Don't Know How She Does It') as financial news analyst Sloan Sabbith.
