An actress on the Netflix original (hit) series 'House of Cards' says that in the course of doing research for the show -a story about a fictitious congressman, staring Kevin Spacey, and based on a BBC miniseries- she was told by a "senior White House official that -as on the show- reporters DO sleep with their (married) sources... at least in this putrid regime.
Robin Wright -who plays Claire Underwood, wife of Spacey's congressman character on the show- said that in the course of researching her role, she learned some surprising things (to her, anyway) about what goes on in D.C.
According to Wright, a "senior persion: in the Obama administration told her that reporters sleep with their sources, among other things
(I got $100 says it's Biden!).
Her conclusion? "D.C. is more corrupt than Hollywood. It really is. Its more sleazy than Hollywood-
how much infidelity goes on."
'Sleeping with sources' has been central theme in the plot of the show...

Charlize Theron can't take her eyes off rumoured boyfriend Sean Penn as she sits beside him flirting at his charity gala
She made Sean get rid of his gun collection.

She made Sean get rid of his gun collection. Well she had a good argument - with all the hired armed security guards they have, they don't need to get their hands dirty themselves. That's for the little people.

"Yep, once married Penn and her most famous role was Buttercup." I always think of her as "Jenny" from Forrest Gump...

It's already been exposed how many members of the media sleep with members of the Obama administration. There IS collusion between this administration and the major news outlets in America.
