Aaron Sorkin On The "Steve Jobs" Controversy | CONAN on TBS

Sorkin shouldn't apologize for making the movie and he sure has hell shouldn't not have apologized for making a very salient point about some of Apple's evil corporate practices in China.

[supremegeneraljj]

Lol I love how the audience applaud him when he brings up their factories then he's says he said sorry to Tim Cook.

[daveminion]

God bless Sorkin for calling out the evil labor practices of Apple and Cook.

[KindaSorta]

Either way, the movie is fucking fantastic. Please watch it if you have the time

[BruceWayne-epir]

I love this guy and Bill Burr too for shedding at the darker sides of the supposed genius of Steve Jobs

[JordMan]

i fucking love this guy, loved the newsroom.

[StanMarsh]

I wonder how many of those people who clapped about Apple's poor working conditions have iPhones.

[fidorover]

Looks like Aaron Sorkin owns the same model of tanning bed as John Boehner.

[wongbenyb]

Moral of the story: Working condition in Chinese factory is well forgotten the second there is no more zinger involved.

[dtyne]

The crowd goes, 'Boo'? Shouldn't they have gone, 'Bah bah baaaah'?

[nicholasduprel]

Steve jobs was a marketing and business professional. he was lucky to work w those that he did.why everyone puts him on a pedestal w other giants I have no idea.o Apple hype...

[omarth]

Aaron Sorkin is a genius, and The Newsroom is one of my favorite shows of all time!

[TheSmokingSkull]

It's interesting how a lot of people try to cover up how Steve Jobs actually wasn't the greatest guy. I guess Apple has to keep its golden spokesman, well, golden. Even small touches like how Jobs distanced himself from his daughter, who he denied was his until it was proven later on.

new generation: says "like" alot
last generation: says "uh" alot

[alexsmith]

Good for Aaron. I like people who will put themselves out there a little to speak the truth even when they don't need to.

[VultureClone]

I know people are a bit unsure about another Jobs movie, but I'd rather watch Fassbender on the screen than Kutcher, so I think it'll be good.

[EGarrett]

Steve Jobs commissioned the biography HIMSELF. He wanted the self-promotion and media coverage. There's nothing opportunistic about it.

[male]

I only use iPhone since 2010, and I believe Aaron is right about whom is the "opportunist" especially after the new iPhone 7

[andrewhawkings]

And personally, I think Steve Jobs was a little overrated (c) BIll Burr

[ipvpfun]

i thought this was the guy from review coming on the show after a shoot for the episode where he tries to get the perfect body
