Wendy Williams was looking for an experienced daytime TV producer — and boy, did she find one. “The Wendy Williams Show” has hired Jennifer Brookman to run the controversial topics segments on the syndicated daytime talk show, according to insiders familiar with the situation. That’s the same part of the show that landed the host in hot water earlier this year after she made ill-advised comments about historically black colleges and the NAACP. A show spokeswoman did not have an official comment. However, Brookman comes with some baggage of her own: She is suing Rosie O’Donnell for slander, claiming that O’Donnell got her.
