“Murphy Brown” isn’t playing games when it comes to politics. The revived CBS sitcom took on the Trump Administration Thursday from inside the president’s own home, crashing a Sarah Huckabee Sanders White House press conference.
The titular character, played by Candice Bergen, snuck into a fake version of the regular briefing and Q&A to ask Sanders one simple question: “Why do you lie?”
It didn’t go over well.
“If you really want to talk about what’s inappropriate, how about the way that you do your job?” Brown asked Sanders, who was played by a combination of voiceover and clever edits from a real media event.
