BIG BREAK: ABC News Radio’s Ann Comptonrecommended I apply for a job as an ABC news desk assistant. She said it wasn’t glamorous but would get my foot in the door. It did.

From Yarvitz:

BIGGEST 2012 ACCOMPLISHMENT: Getting nominated for a second Emmy and then losing. Thanks a lot, Anderson Cooper!
