Unconfirmed Reddit statement
"Sorkin said in the Blu-Ray commentary that S1's into was a little too slow, and didn't get across the urgency that one would find in a Newsroom setting. While the S1 into was more nostalgic of a news studio, he wanted you to feel engaged with how fast things were moving."
