From Deadline Hollywood:

HBO‘s The Newsroom has added Rosemarie DeWitt and Patton Oswalt to the cast heading into Season 2. Both will play recurring roles on the show...

...DeWitt will play Rebecca Halliday, a litigator who’s been hired to defend Atlantis in a multimillion-dollar wrongful-termination suit. Oswalt is playing Jonas Pfeiffer, the new Vice President of Human Resources of ACN.

I DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS. On one hand, I think The Newsroom is a pompous, terrible joke that is antiquated in its assessment of the media, while simultaneously being overwritten and brimming with smug satisfaction. On the other hand, I LOVE ME SOME PATTON OSWALT!!

Tell me how I should feel about this.
