Julianna Margulies is making waves on season 2 of The Morning Show, but not everyone is happy about her portrayal of an LGBTQ news anchor.The Emmy winner, 55, addressed potential critics of the show during a Monday, October 25, appearance on CBS Mornings.“I can understand that,” she said, answering a question about whether an LGBTQ actor could more accurately portray the character. “My response also would be: We’re all making assumptions as to who I am and what my past is, and what all of our pasts are.
