NOT THE NEXT KATIE COURIC

Another Bush accused of nepotism: Chelsea Handler blasts Jenna Bush Hager

07.01.10 | 01:43 pm

My inbox has been inundated the last few days with cries of FOUL! over Jenna Bush Hager's recent stint as Today Show correspondent. How could so many journalism school graduates still be struggling for full-time work when Bush spawn were on-air?

The blonde Bush reported from Yellowstone Park, where she fumbled over her words ("woof-watching") and read her less-than-a-minute-long report straight from paper. It was touching, really, to see a kid so resemble her father.

We weren't the only ones who caught it — comedienne and late-night show host Chelsea Handler ripped into Bush hard on Chelsea Lately, comparing her efforts to a third grader's report on dinosaurs and declaring, "it's pretty clear you got this job because of your father, much like your father got his job because of his father."

 

Watch Chelsea Handler hand it to Jenna Bush Hager:

Wonder if she can pronounce "nepotism" . . .

Chelsea Handler is never afraid to blast the powerful or the dumb — or the powerful and dumb.
