CNN: Senators nix filming for HBO's 'K Street'

Do local or cable news crews ever go into these locations to do any filming? The news media is a commercial, for-profit venture too. Perhaps these HBO crews should have gotten press clearance. Hm, since it's a "fusion of reality and fiction", I guess that wouldn't work.

I definitely agree that those buildings shouldn't be exploited though. I'm just disappointed because I think a show about K-Street would be very interesting and enlightening, especially considering how things have changed on K-Street in the last couple of years. I wish they had made it a true reality/documentary show, rather than fictional.
