FILE - In this May 3, 2014 file photo, President Barack Obama laughs as actor and comedian Joel McHale speaks during the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) Dinner at the Washington Hilton Hotel in Washington. A former Politico journalist is poking a hole in the bubble that surrounds one of Washington’s biggest, celebrity-obsessed weekends with his new documentary “Nerd Prom.” The official dinner draws the president to the stage to make some jokes, and many attendees spend the night posing for selfies with celebrity guests. This year’s dinner is set for Saturday. Film producers plan to release “Nerd Prom” on iTunes, Amazon and Netflix in the coming months. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File)
