It’s ok.. Chelsea does it too:
In September 2015, Vanity Fair cited sources within NBC News who called Chelsea Clintons stint there a disaster and said that news of her sizeable salary for a part-time job had caused ripples in the organization:
Her stint at NBC was a disaster, perhaps because it ran so contrary to her instincts. Most of us were baffled [by the hire], because she never even spoke to the press, says an NBC veteran. Shed walk by with the imperial stare, looking forward, and interacted not at all. The feeling inside NBC was that she had been hired to maintain access to and curry favor with the Clintons. When news broke that she had been getting paid $600,000for a part-time jobNBC staffers were appalled. Most full-time correspondents were being paid far less.
The big salary was predicated on the idea that she was already a star, and according to an insider, she started acting like one. Colleagues felt they couldnt communicate with her directly. Instead, they had to go through her people. And she was hardly present in the office. There was a joke inside the building that she was the highest-paid ghost at NBC, says a network source. It all might have been excused had she been any good. In the span of nearly three years, however, she filed only a handful of segmentsall painfully stiff reports on global do-gooders, plus an attempted comic interview with the Geico Gecko.
As the insider puts it, NBC has made a lot of bad decisions in the last few years, but hiring Chelsea has to be very near the top.
Her $600,000 deal came up for renewal this year, reports Politico, but the network decided to place her on a month-to-month arrangement in case her mom, Hillary Rodham Clinton, should declare for the 2016 presidential race.
NBC News refers to Clinton as a special correspondent, a title best interpreted literally. What unspecial correspondent, after all, gets paid more than a half-mil to do puff stories and travel to Nairobi to check in on elephants?
