The Enigma of Chelsea

Julia Ioffe and Annie Karni, Politico – July 28, 2016

In the lull between last Christmas and New Year’s Day, Chelsea Clinton, three months pregnant, was perusing the Science section of the New York Times, when she came across a story on a surge of Brazilian babies born with a rare birth defect. “The increase in microcephaly—an incurable form of brain damage—has been blamed on an epidemic of the Zika virus, which was unknown in Latin America before this year,” the article said.

Time for Chelsea Clinton’s Easy Ride to End

Jack Shafer, Politico – February 5, 2016

When precisely did Chelsea Clinton complete her transition from a White House kid whom journalists agreed to treat as off-limits to a public figure deserving of the full scrutiny of the press corps? The unsettling answer to the question appears to be, “Not yet.” The soon-to-be 36-year-old occupies the status of an American princess—Diana on the Potomac, if you will. The press covers her, of course, attempting to ask her substantive questions, but mostly she exists to grace the covers of magazines—Fast Company and Elle most recently—and be treated to lighter-than-air puff pieces.
