Oh Connie! Oh Connie!

A little bio on Connie Chung for you from Wikipedia:

Chung's network television career has been with ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC. Chung was a Washington D.C. based correspondent for the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite in the early 1970s, during the Watergate political scandal. Later, Chung left for the Los Angeles owned and operated station of CBS, KNXT (now KCBS). Moving to the nation's second largest (and highest paying) local news market, sunny southern California, was a smart career move, since popular local news anchors like KABC's Jerry Dunphy, Christine Lund, and KNBC's Paul Moyer and Kelly Lange and Tritia Toyota were pulling in million-dollar annual salaries.She returned with great fanfare to network news as NBC created a new early program, NBC News at Sunrise, which was scheduled right before the popular Today program. Later, NBC created American Almanac, which she co-hosted with Roger Mudd, after Mudd left the NBC Nightly News, where he co-anchored for two years with Tom Brokaw.Chung left NBC for CBS where she hosted Saturday Night with Connie Chung, and on June 1, 1993, she became the second woman (after Barbara Walters) to co-anchor a major network's national news broadcast (with CBS). After her unsuccessful co-anchoring stint with Dan Rather ended in 1995, Chung jumped to ABC News where she co-hosted 20/20 and began independent interviews—a field which would soon become her trademark.

How -- no, really, HOW -- did she go from co-anchoring major network news to this goodbye song. If there was ever a reason for mandated drug tests and psychological examinations, this is it:
