The play's story closely follows the plot of the 2005 film, which portrays the conflict between veteran CBS journalist Edward R. Murrow and U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin regarding the Senator's investigations and use of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations to blacklist people suspected of being communist. Near the end, the play adds a projected montage depicting the evolution of news coverage, showing archival footage including the destruction of the World Trade Center, the January 6 United States Capitol attack, and ending with Elon Musk’s alleged Nazi salute.
