Filed under: Journalism, Chelsea Clinton

Score one for kids’ rights advocates. Child reporters are now treated just as poorly as the older, more wrinkled members of the press. 

On the campaign trail with her mom in Iowa, Chelsea Clinton wouldn’t answer a question from 9-year-old Sydney Rieckhoff, a “kid reporter” for Scholastic News. The fourth grader, being a typical nosy journalist, asked the famous First Daughter, “Do you think your dad would be a good ‘first man’ in the White House?”

Replied Chelsea: “I’m sorry, I don’t talk to the press and that applies to you, unfortunately. Even though I think you’re cute.”

Is there a lesson here somewhere, kids, about choosing to be a journalist when you grow up?

    Chelsea Clinton was out campaigning, if she does not want to answer questions she should have remained at home. Her mother wants all the positive reaction from her daughter’s presence without the negative. If you put yourself in the limelight it is only reasonable that you answer questions. I for one feel that she should either stop campaigning or answer questions.

    we could all learn a lesson from this. anytime you have to say something that kinda makes you come off sounding like an icy bitch, just follow it up with “even though i think you’re cute”. thank you, chelsea!!!

    Chelsea Clinton should be remembered for the terrible comments about the Armed Forces guarding her and her parents. But she was a worthless piece of crap then and now she’s an older piece of worthless crap.

    Chelsea could have answered the girl’s question. I mean, it seemed pretty innocent.

    Chelsea had all rights to answer that question. when you are running for President of the USA your life becomes an open book and if you are asking us as voters to vote for you then we have the right to ask what ever the hell we want - if you dont think it is ‘none of our business’ than you guys should simply get out of the race..I want to know about whitewater - will they answer that?
