S and 20th St signs and Dupont Circle DC Historic District sign in foreground.

TD Bank is on the left and a cleaner is on the right. Contrary to one view... there is no backyard for a hot tub. If fact, there is no back yard. Nary a weed nor blade of grass. [/CENTER]

(Sense the dripping sarcasm). Actually this is posted specifically for "Cannottellyou." Who knew, my friend, that "work" could have been sooo close by the house... Literally not even 50 yards from the front door.

[CENTER]Today was a very sunny day in DC. It's difficult to get a clear image from inside the house that does not turn out totally dark. Here is one -- inside the door on the ground floor just to the right of and below the main entrance. Thanks to a little photoshop magic you can see new drywall that has recently gone up.

[QUOTE=Zachary;81913]This is legal right?[/QUOTE] Is what legal? Could you be specific?

[QUOTE=Zachary;82013]Yessum. What I mean us posting pictures of the house and everything before the series begins legal. I remember we did this on [URL="http://www.therealworldphilly.com"]www.therealworldphilly.com[/URL] and our posts were deleted.[/QUOTE] 1) The pictures all were taken while on public property, from property not under the control of BMP, or with the approval of property owners. 2) There is no invasion of privacy. The permits issued by the government of the District of Columbia are public documents and must be displayed for public inspection. 3) vevmo.com acts to publish news. We broke the story of TRW coming to DC. The moderators of the site are part of the vevmo editorial staff. We are the journalists of this new electronic age. A reminder... [QUOTE]First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.[/QUOTE] In an analysis of the 2000 Federal District Court case, Green vs. CBS Broadcasting Corp., First Amendment attorney, David L. Hudson Jr., wrote the following to describe the Court's view: [QUOTE]A private-facts plaintiff must also show that the “private” information disclosed is not of “legitimate concern” to the public. Many courts have applied a “newsworthy” privilege, especially when dealing with media defendants. The question becomes whether the released “private” information was newsworthy.[/QUOTE] In the instance of MTV, control of the means of transmission is regulated under Federal Law by the FCC. Thus, the Real World is a legitimate public interest matter. The Real World house location is one of the hottest blog topics in the DC area. The mood of most bloggers is very negative, with a quickly growing twitter assemblage ready to undertake guerrilla tactics to disrupt show filming. Vevmo is the largest internet site with a decidedly pro-RW editorial policy. Franks, MTV and BMP should be actively cooperating with us to disseminate the facts.

Since the construction crews are working on weekends, there is no reason to think they will not meet their shooting start date. Of course, no one actually knows what that date is. The last job notice we saw mentioned a hire date of June 21. You don't begin shooting on the crew hire date with something this complicated. The pick up crews have too much to learn. It was the DC bloggers who first mentioned June 21 as a start date. These people, of course, have no clue about have TV production works. They are simply casual bystanders, fans or haters, which does not make them informed.
