Flashback: NBC Paid The Bribe Money Via Chelsea Clinton. NBC Paid Chelsea Clinton $600,000 to Do Nothing, Basically.


Flashback. New York Magazine on NBC and the bribe money to the Clinton's:
Former first child (now with child) Chelsea Clinton had a $600,000 annual contract at NBC News, Politico reports, where she served as a “special correspondent” and was deemed to be mostly useless, if not “one of the most boring people of her era.” That deal is over now, but Clinton is still being paid by the network (which has also hired Luke Russert, Meghan McCain, and Jenna Bush … ) on a month-to-month basis, with complicating factors including her pregnancy and the good odds her mother is running for president.

“NBC News continues to enjoy a wonderful working relationship with Chelsea, and we are proud of her work,” said a spokesperson.
For you rookies out there at Northwestern or Columbia Journalism School: your pay in journalism will be much less. Just a heads up. Not everyone can come from a family and act as "bagwoman".
