History
editAndrea Mitchell's show featured special coverage of the DNC Convention in 2008.[2]
In September 2008, Megan Garber of Columbia Journalism Review questioned whether or not Andrea Mitchell should be reporting on the economic downturn, due to possible conflicts of interests.[3]

Subrata De was named the show's executive producer in January 2012, replacing Jennifer Suozzo, who became senior broadcast producer of NBC Nightly News.[5] De left MSNBC to join ABC News in June 2014.[6]
A June 18, 2012, segment originally aired on MSNBC's Way Too Early with Willie Geist was reaired on Andrea Mitchell Reports and criticized for taking Mitt Romney's comments at a campaign stop in Pennsylvania out of context.[7][8]
In March 2021, Andrea Mitchell Reports was folded into MSNBC's newly rebranded rolling news block MSNBC Reports, whose individual programs took on a similar naming scheme with their anchor's name.[9][10][11][12]
