Summary of NewsRadio

At WNYX, New York's second highest rated news radio station, a cast of strong and idiosyncratic personalities repeatedly clash--yet somehow manage to keep the station afloat. From clueless station owner Jimmy (Stephen Root), to high strung news director Dave (Dave Foley), to high-maintenence anchor team Bill and Catherine (Phil Hartman and Khandi Alexander), to by-the-book producer Lisa (Maura Tierney), and beyond, this office of eccentrics provided a seemingly endless supply of comic situations during the series' five year run on NBC-TV from 1995-1999.
