How did Andrea Mitchell ever become a newscaster?

Because I didn't have a clue! Thank you. Clearly, I must read more Kurt Vonnegut.

5. I've said the same thing MANY times. She can't talk, it takes her forever to spit out

8. Being married to Alan Greenspan did'nt hurt.
When she got the gig, she was considered the ultimate insider, imo of course.
