America's Hall of Fame Of Media Nepotism: For Some Reason They Don't Understand The Life Of America's Working Class

They're Not Like Us. It Must Be Their Bloodline That Makes Them So Unique.

Of themselves you know they
Don't give a f**k about anybody else

"They should convene a panel for the next Meet the Press with Jenna Bush Hager, Luke Russert, Liz Cheney, Megan McCain and Jonah Goldberg, and they should have Chris Wallace moderate it.  They can all bash affirmative action and talk about how vitally important it is that the U.S. remain a Great Meritocracy because it's really unfair for anything other than merit to determine position and employment.  They can interview Lisa Murkowski, Evan Bayh, Jeb Bush, Bob Casey, Mark Pryor, Jay Rockefeller, Dan Lipinksi, and Harold Ford, Jr. about personal responsibility and the virtues of self-sufficiency.  Bill Kristol, Tucker Carlson and John Podhoretz can provide moving commentary on how America is so special because all that matters is merit, not who you know or where you come from." --Glen Greenwall, American Royalty, Salon, 8/30/09

Some of them good. Some not so good. All of them got a huge leg up by their parents that makes them America's royal families of media
The Russerts Luke and Tim

The Wallaces Mike and Chris. They may be on different sides of the aisle, when it comes to news, but they both cash some hefty checks.

The KoppelsTed and daughter Andrea CNN

Alan and Andrea Greenspan. Alan might have been wrong about so much of the Mortgage mess but Mrs. Greenspan still no doubt gets to tap into his expertise before going on the air. Oh I forgot the news division has nothing to do with the news maker division.

Senator Scott Brown's daughter Ayla Brown, left, might have just graduated college but she no doubt was the best person for the job for CBS's Today show.



Jenna Bush Hager, on top, was thought to be just perfect as an educational reporter.


Anderson Cooper and mother Gloria Vanderbilt


Before Mika Brzezinski started have coffee grandes with Morning Joe she was having it with dad Zbigniew
Megan McCain with dad before she started blogging for The Daily Beast and appearing on MSNBC

Before Jonah was a top conservative pundit, his mother was teaching Linda Tripp how to tap phones

After Bristol Palin had her baby, she was able to spin this into a gig as abstinence ambassador. Did her mother have anything to do with this, you betcha'.
