A close friend (who shares my affinity for selective anonymity) sent me this youtube clip and his comments, along with a request for my take on the excerpt from an episode of the program 'Newsroom', which is up for Emmy nominations. I will pass along the advisory note that he issued, as to the modest profanity employed by the lead character, because I always want to be up front about any content that might not be personally acceptable to any of my readers.
Here's his question, the video and my reply:

My college age daughter likes the show, she showed me
the clip, she actually saved it on her I-phone ( more technology to bring the loss of goodness).
Jeff blasts back to the young girl about the decline of morals in our country while he takes God’s name in vain~~!
What?`~! That’s breaking a Commandment of God, a grave sin.
I watched the first few episodes, out of curiosity. It’s Aaron Sorkin’s attempt to rewrite history...basically he’s having a wet dream on HBO..
