Legendary prankster George Clooney chronicles the broadcast battle between Edward R. Murrow and Joe McCarthy in this still-timely rebuke of government secrecy and fear-mongering. Can we talk about the smoking, though? Plus, Tara and Jacob discuss old-timey advertisements, Liberace\\u2019s girlfriends, and we count down Clooney\\u2019s top practical jokes and pranks. (Apologies for the noisy laptop!)

Box Office Bylines is a podcast about movies about journalism. Can this instrument teach, can it illuminate and can it inspire? And can it do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it to those ends? Or is it nothing but wires and lights in a box? Email us about it at boxofficebylines@gmail.com
