‘Murphy Brown’ on 2016: ‘If Hillary Had Won, We Would Be Dancing in the Street’

[See NewsBusters for more.] If Hillary Clinton had prevailed in 2016, there would have been no Murphy Brown revival. The cast would, instead, have been “dancing in the street.” That’s the assertion from the show's star, Candice Bergen. But don’t worry, the series isn’t a “Donald Trump bashing show,” according to CBS This Morning co-host Gayle King. Except, of course, it is. It's the same liberal show it always was. Bergen and co-star Faith Ford appeared on CBS, Wednesday, to promote the 2018 revival of the show. Bergen asserted that “We definitely wouldn't have had the show” if Trump hadn’t won. She added, “We didn't have a motivation do it. We didn't really have the meat or a story. And then when the election happened, I mean, if Hillary had won, we would just be dancing in the streets.”
