THE FOURTH ESTATE
June 3, 2018  | By David Bianculli

Showtime, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

Last week, this documentary series premiered, looking at how The New York Times covered the Donald Trump presidency – beginning with such headline-generating stories as the President’s claim that he had been wiretapped by the FBI at the insistence of the Obama administration. The players may be different (hello, again, Sean Spicer), but with “Spygate” claims all over the news these days, this look back at politics and press coverage also seems uncomfortably… timely. Tonight, with a new episode, who knows what old stories will seem fresh again?
