In case you've been relying on Aaron Sorkin as a news source, it may be time to turn your attention elsewhere: He doesn't report the news on "The Newsroom."

"We don't report the news on 'The Newsroom.' The news serves as a backdrop against which we're telling our own stories. It's historical fiction," Sorkin explained to New Republic. "If there's dramatic value to the way a story's reported or if it can serve as the basis for a conflict of ideas or if we can put one or more of our characters into the story without disturbing the reality of what really happened then it has a chance of showing up on the show."

Although there's no guarantee that Sorkin will cover all the recent controversial news events such as Anthony Weiner in Season 3, he's already managed to ruffle a few feathers in the second season of the controversial HBO series.

The 2012 presidential campaign was controversial enough before Aaron Sorkin got his hands on it, and now that it's being addressed on "The Newsroom," Mitt Romney's former aides aren't exactly thrilled.

On Sunday's episode of the HBO series, Jim Harper (John Gallagher Jr.) was kicked off a Romney press bus because aides for his campaign weren't a fan of "The Newsroom's" fictional program "News Night."

But according to Romney's real-life former spokesperson Ryan Williams, no such thing even came close to happening.

"You all would have heard about that if it had happened," Williams told The Salt Lake Tribune, adding that the show "doesn't seem to be very close to the truth."

Williams went on to say that he finds Sorkin's concept -- to tell a fictional account of the 2012 presidential campaign --to be "a little silly."

Although "The Newsroom" has gotten a lot of flack over the course of its run on HBO,...

What if there were a shirt that would drive women around you into an uncontrollable sexual stupor? That’s the central conceit behind Chick Magnet, and of course the second big question is how to explain to her why you want to keep your shirt on during sex. The trailer for the low budget sex comedy definitely shows its limitations, but there’s at least a little bit to chuckle at here and a heart that will inevitably be involved (since one of the characters wants to use the shirt to get his crappy ex-wife back). Plus, somehow the production tricked Tracy Morgan, Kristen Bell and Rosario Dawson into making appearances as themselves. For those keeping score, an unknown writer/director and writer/producer (named Ryan R. Williams and Jeff Venables) created a movie where every woman wants to sex them up, and they somehow convinced Bell and Dawson to be two of those women. So...
