It talks down to it's audience, it's characters seem completely unmotivated for all of their actions. The biggest story line of the year was basically pinned on a parachuted non-main character so they were easily scapegoated and the rest of the newsroom staff could get off without any fault.
And finally, Sorkin used the laziest plot device on the planet of the "evil mastermind" to explain the whole thing away. you see, it wasn't sloppy journalism, or a bad lead, no it was a plan devised by some 8th tier character to bring down ACN. Give me an effing break.
That scene between maggie and jim "when did you first notice me" literally made me want to puke.
