This has nothing to do with the Aaron Sorkin show, but I ran across this site BECAUSE of the show, and am enjoying the hell out of it. It’s literally just what it sounds like: things overheard in a newsroom.  
And it’s kept me entertained all afternoon. No ads or anything, just straight, one-liners or comments heard, well…in the newsroom! Goes back a few years, so plenty of quips to keep ya occupied.

Enjoy!

Oh, good gravy, this was my life for seven years! Journalism does weird things to your brain. I almost can’t laugh at it, because it’s all too real. (I still did laugh though.)
