On Saturday, CNN aired George Clooney’s Broadway show Good Night, and Good Luck, a remake of the 2005 film about journalist Edward R. Murrow. In a Friday op-ed, CNN’s Brian Stelter claimed the show mirrors today’s media battles, likening Murrow’s fight against McCarthyism to the press’s clashes with Donald Trump.

“The historical echoes in ‘Good Night, and Good Luck’ are extraordinary. Some might even say they’re eerie,” wrote Stelter. “The play transports viewers back to the 1950s but feels equally relevant in the 2020s with its themes of unrestrained political power, corporate timidity and journalistic integrity.”
