[See NewsBusters for more.] The upcoming season of CBS’s The Good Fight will feature an episode on impeaching Donald Trump. So, naturally, the drama got some pre-hype on Tuesday’s CBS This Morning. Co-host Gayle King marveled, “You talk about white supremacy, referring to the President of the United States. You talk about racial injustice.” She cheered, “It really pushes the envelope.” Good Fight star Christine Baranski touted, “We just did an episode on impeachment. Just finished an episode on the golden shower tape.” An excited King almost yelled, “That’s what I mean by pushing the envelope!” Baranski said of the show’s writers: “They have to chase the news in order to stay on top of it. They almost have to anticipate what's going to happen.” Like... impeachment?
