Chinese American media personality Constance Yu-Hwa Chung Povich was born on August 20, 1946. She is an American journalist who has been a news anchorwoman for the U.S. television news networks ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC.
I met her at NBC, where we produced content for Sunrise and TODAY.
In early 2018, Chung was asked if she had been sexually harassed in her career. She replied, "Oh, yeah! Oh, sure. Yeah. Every day. I mean, a lot. Especially when I started out". Later that year, following Christine Blasey Ford's testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee alleging she was sexually assaulted by Brett Kavanaugh, Chung wrote an open letter to Blasey-Ford in which Chung said she was assaulted in college by the doctor who delivered her, during an appointment when she approached him for birth control.
Some of her more famous interview subjects include Claus von Bülow and U.S. representative Gary Condit, whom Chung interviewed first after the Chandra Levyand basketball legend Magic Johnson after he went public about being HIV-positive.
In 1993, she became the second woman to co-anchor a network newscast, as part of CBS Evening News.
