The Newsroom season 1 is finally available for DVD and Blu-ray pre-order, and it looks like you can get your hands on it (along with some great special features) before season 2 begins airing on HBO.
Finally! The Newsroom DVD has been in a state of limbo, but we finally have a set release date: June 11, 2013. That means you should have time to watch the DVD and devour all of the special features before season 2 of The Newsroom returns to HBO screens in late June 2013.
HBO is listing an abridged version of the special features on its website; however, from the artwork photos uploaded on Amazon, we are able to give you a full list.
