rdf:langString Anna Karmina Balderrama Constantino-Torres (born September 12, 1979), known professionally as Karmina Constantino, is a Filipina television broadcast journalist who anchors Dateline Philippines on ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC) during weekdays. Formerly she was a co-host of Breakfast on Studio 23 and a temporary replacement for the co-hosting chair in Mornings @ ANC. Constantino and fellow news anchor Tony Velasquez were the interviewers who represented ABS-CBN in PiliPinas Forum 2022, the multi-network interview series produced in partnership with the Philippine Commission on Elections that covered the candidates of the 2022 Philippine presidential election. Velasquez and Constantino are also co-hosting partners in DZMM TeleRadyo's On the Spot program. In 2022, Constantino was awarded a Jaime V. Ongpin Journalism Fellowship and a Marshall McLuhan Fellowship. Known for her hard-hitting questions, Constantino went viral on Twitter in 2022 when she rebuffed presidential candidate Jose Montemayor Jr.'s insinuation that ANC accepted money from another presidential candidate, quipping, "I'm sorry, I’m not going to let that pass, Dr. Montemayor. We are not in the business of getting paid. I am personally insulted by this insinuation. We can go on with this interview, we can leave this topic and move on but let me tell you, this is not an insinuation that I will take lightly. This company is not in the business of getting paid. This journalist you are talking to right now has never been or ever will be paid by anyone to ask or not ask any questions." On a Reddit interview, Constantino said that the media's role and responsibility in relation to disinformation is to "push back by seeking the truth always and retelling the same". On the day of the death of former Philippine President Fidel Ramos, Constantino posted on Instagram photos of her and the former President that were taken during her 2015 interview with him. In that interview, Constantino said the former President "offered his apologies to my father and our family. . . . To many, they experienced his presidency. To me, I experienced his humanity."
