The last weekend in April rolls around again, and that means it's time for the
annual White House Correspondents' Dinner in DC, which has been known to provide us
some very different views of many favorite newsbabes & celebrities, dressed to kill and thrill.
This year, on the eve of the event, a new independent film has come out tracing the
history of the event, and showing what it's evolved (or devolved)
into."Nerd Prom: The Movie" - preview clips at:

This clip in particular is the most disturbing --from several years ago, the audience largely ignoring
the scholarship students presentation the dinner was founded for:

Yes, there's a ton of tackiness and ego going on, but at least there's a decent amount of
eye candy to offset all of that.
Now with that said -- here's what to expect Saturday night:
As always, CSPAN goes wall to wall, from the arrivals on down to the last dinner speaker. Starting
around 6pm and going most of the evening.
CNN & MSNBC will likely do the usual, dropping in and out of things during the arrivals,
then staying with the main dinner between 9pm-10pm.
