Murphy Brown is an Emmy Award-winning American sitcom which aired on CBS from 1988 to 1998 and restarting in 2018. Starting Candice Bergen as Murphy Brown is a recovering alcoholic, who, in the show's first episode, returns to the fictional newsmagazine FYI for the first time following a stay at the Betty Ford Clinic.

Dominating the FYI news magazine, she is portrayed as one of America's hardest-hitting (though not the warmest or more sympathetic) media personalities.
