Even the Washington Post agrees:
It’s no surprise whatsoever that Chelsea Clinton didn’t electrify broadcast journalism with her debut Monday night on NBC’s “Rock Center With Brian Williams,” because she has no experience in broadcast journalism. She didn’t cut her teeth with live coverage of strip-mall blazes in Sacramento. She never did weekend weather in Wichita Falls. She didn’t blow the lid off mail-order ham scams in Des Moines. (Who — besides everyone working in TV news who did each and every one of those things — says you have to do all that?)
Rather, what was surprising to see on Monday night’s show is how someone can be on TV in such a prominent way and, in her big moment, display so very little charisma — none at all. Either we’re spoiled by TV’s unlimited population of giant personalities or this woman is one of the most boring people of her era.Compare the comments above with Brian Williams' gushy sycophantic introduction of Chelsea as being "super smart, worldly and curious " enough to actually work at NBC news! They are not worthy! "Her intellect! The life she has lived!"
See, if you are a child of one of The Anointed, you are automatically a Princeling! and deserve accolades no matter what you do or don't do! (Kinda like getting a Peace prize for doing nothing.)
So here's her debut. She asks a couple flat questions like, "Why'd you buy this land for your project?"
Ooo. Great job.
Or not.
