A soap opera producer who raised mega-bucks for Obama gets rewarded with a plum gig:

Washington (CNN) -- It's not every day that White House has to defend its decision to nominate a soap opera producer to represent the country on one of the highest diplomatic levels. 

But it was that kind of Tuesday. 

Asked at the daily press briefing what makes "The Bold and The Beautiful" producer Colleen Bell qualified to serve as U.S. Ambassador to Hungary, White House spokesman Josh Earnest didn't exactly have an explanation. 

"(She's) somebody who obviously has succeeded in, you know, in the business world," Earnest said. 

"And she is somebody that the President has confidence will be able to maintain our relationship with the government and the people of Hungary." 

Earnest also denied that Bell's hand in raising millions of dollars for the President's re-election campaign had anything to do with her appointment. 

"Well, I can tell you that that's not the reason she was chosen," he said...

 That's the reason she was chosen.
