Eva Pilgrim has spent her career chasing stories from local newsrooms to ABC News, GMA3, 20/20 and now the anchor desk of Inside Edition, where she became only the fourth host in the show's history after Deborah Norville. But her path into journalism wasn't exactly planned. In college, she was doing website work for “beer money” when one of those sites happened to be connected to a news station—and a career was born. On this episode of That's Total Mom Sense, Eva and Kanika go behind the broadcast: growing up Korean-American in a military family, the stories that changed her, what she learned from legendary journalist Deborah Norville, how motherhood has changed the way she works, and the Korean-mom lessons she carries into parenting. Plus, two broadcasters talk shop about the art of the interview, journalistic integrity, what really happens in a newsroom and why the best interviews aren't about asking the smartest question. They're about creating enough trust for someone to tell you the truth. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
