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. It’s more sleazy than Hollywood-
how much infidelity goes on." 

'Sleeping with sources' has been central theme in the plot of the show...

Hollywood and Washington DC. Two cesspools. Both could drop into the sea, and we would not miss them.

I think she is a hottie and judging from the above she must be a natural blonde.

Considering that these are democrat reporters we are talking about, I think this is too much information.

So she was a big enough idiot to marry the guy, but smart enough to dump him?

LOL,I like yours better. Do these slime bags know how much we detest them? Do they care? I think not.

Yep, once married Penn and her most famous role was Buttercup. Just the kind of credentials I look for when deciding on the credibility of a source.
