Hello Mr. Sorkin, I'm a huge fan, your work has taught me so much with my own writing. The Newsroom had such a profound effect on me and it's one of those life-altering pieces of Art especially the line "We just decided to.".

I'm wondering, with your feature work, how much rewriting happens, specificaly to the snappy dialogue and what's your average number of drafts on a script before you consider it ready to hand in? You've talked before in interviews about your pre-writing time (watching ESPN) so I imagine there ends up being less time to re-write.

I know the AMA is over but I just wanna say I very much got the allegory for depression in the film, loved it too, solid solid work from everyone involved.
