Will NBC News Fire Chelsea Clinton?

Well, in television they don't usually call it getting fired. Nicollette Sheridan got fired, but most people just do not have their contracts renewed.

It is just a fancy way of trying to make you feel better about being unwanted and unloved because if anyone had liked you then you would have your contract renewed so it is all your fault and obviously you will never make it in this business.

Maybe not that harsh.

Anyway, Chelsea Clinton is on a 90 day contract with NBC and after the disaster of her first report it is very unlikely there will be another 90 day contract forthcoming.

I actually think that part of the problem was that it was her first time doing any reporting or anything on television and they threw her out there on a national broadcast and said be great without doing much practice with her.

Was it boring? Absolutely.

Was it painful to watch? Had to pause it a few times and wanted to fast forward. Could she get better? Everyone will probably get better. Her parents are certainly not boring so she has the genes. She just might not get a chance.

I didn't see the "disaster of her first report" - someone enlighten me, was it that bad?

You actually don't have to be "liked" to have a successful career. There are people who are notorious because they are hated...but you have to be good at what you do to fall into either end of the spectrum. If people like you, for example, Kelly Ripa, then that is why they watch. If they hate you, they continue to watch because it solidifies why they hate you..there is no room for mediocrity. You only get lost in the shuffle.

I wish her the best. Things looked so promising at her wedding last summer. She had the world at her fingertips.

Now she's got a loser husband and no career. I guess the only logical next step is... politics.
