Veteran NBC News journalist Andrea Mitchell announced that she will conclude her weekday MSNBC program following the next presidential inauguration to focus on reporting duties. Mitchell, aged 77, has been at the helm of Andrea Mitchell Reports since 2008, marking a longer tenure than any other host in the network's current lineup. Her career with NBC News spans back to 1978, covering all major political conventions since 1980.

Though stepping away from her daily anchor position, Mitchell will continue her contributions to NBC News, playing a significant role in major breaking news and political events. "After 16 years of being in the anchor chair every day, I want time to do more of what I love the most—more connecting, listening and reporting in the field," said Mitchell, expressing her desire to engage deeply with forthcoming political and international challenges, notably the new president's task of managing both foreign conflicts and domestic political rifts. Mitchell will persist as NBC News' chief foreign affairs and chief Washington correspondent, roles she currently holds. (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot. Source: the AP)
