Boomerang Babies: Record Numbers of Young Adults Live with Parents at Terrible Cost

[Divernan]

17. 100s of sources reporting same story - are there any facts you contest?

I'm not familiar with Newsmax - just googled it and learned it's conservative. If you click on the link to the Newsmax report, there is nothing objectionable in it. But, OK. How about the Seattle Times or Wonkette? Radar on line? and on and on for 10 pages of google hits. I think this story is newsworthy for many reasons, the first of which is what it says about the re-distribution of wealth and the fact that we are becoming a nation of renters, except for those who inherit wealth and/or are given high paying jobs (Chelsea was in hedge funds; her husband with Goldman-Sachs) because of their parents' social connections or political status).

Chelsea Clinton's apartment: She can afford $10.5 million

Chelsea Clinton has an apartment she purchased for $10.5 million, reports Radar Online, March 14. The 33-year-old daughter of Bill and Hillary Clinton, and her husband Marc Mezvinsky's new-Georgian style apartment, built in 1924, is 5,000 sq. ft., with "four bedrooms, six and a half bathrooms, a home office and den." It was purchased across the street from where Mezvinsky's $4 million flat is located.


A graduate of Oxford University, and Columbia University, Chelsea was hired as a special correspondent for NBC. "She has done a bunch of warm and fuzzy stories that haven’t gotten any kind of critical appreciation but she does have that Clinton name," said senior television editor April Bernard. "Critics say she doesn’t dig deeply enough as a reporter. She is amateurish and green. She also isn’t charismatic on camera which is surprising because her dad is so appealing. It is just hard to watch her and know she is there because of who she is." Although her reviews were not stellar, Chelsea's contract was renewed in 2012.

Did you know Chelsea Clinton's apartment was so expensive and that she could afford it?
