“I love that they integrated that,” he said. “As the United States was going through and continues to go through a racial reckoning, one of the things I loved that was being addressed through the show is who gets a seat at the table and why. And I loved that they showed, really in quite great detail, how when new voices enter the fray, how that pushes against the hegemony and people don’t like that.”

That dynamic is one of the reason viewers have come to enjoy “The Morning Show,” which was inspired by CNN anchor and chief media correspondent Brian Stelter’s 2013 non-fiction book “Top of the Morning: Inside the Cutthroat World of Morning TV.” (Stelter is a consulting producer on the series.)
Billy Crudup, who returns to his critically-acclaimed role as fast-talking news executive Cory Ellison, told CNN he that “absolutely loves to be a part of a show that is interested in this kid of discourse.”
