The Tower



The show follows a group of reporters as they investigate stories and solve mysteries against the backdrop of the struggle between journalistic ideals and the pursuit of profit. But their new boss Zoe Cafritz, a billionaire media mogul tabloid owner, wants to drop the "boring" articles and add some glitz and spice to her new paper. She isn't afraid to use vulgar language to get her point across to the staff.

Behind the Story

Marcia Gay Harden said she was drawn to the role for three reasons. "One, I'm a CBS devotee. I've worked with CBS many times and I really love it, and two she's a strong woman and I thought it was a character you rarely get a chance to do on television," she said. "And three, I think the issues that 'The Tower' is investigating are extraordinarily important, it's never been a more hot, explosive, fantastic time for politics, for the hugest question: Can we go into the new era with some old world values?' Really old world values about things that would help us survive and move forward in a really humanistic way. I think that's one of the questions that this show is investigating."
