News Anchors
Chris Trenkmann

News Anchor

Chris Trenkmann

Chris delivers the day's top stories every weekday morning on WFLA and across the state on the Florida News Network. After surviving the freezing winters of the industrial north in Syracuse, Cleveland, and Chicago, Chris has chosen to endure the enchanting hurricanes and blazing hot weather of Florida. Working in both TV and radio news, Chris has covered some of the biggest stories in Florida and across the country. He was at the evacuations of the Sears Tower and the Hancock building after the 9-11 attacks. Chris was just blocks away from the Boston Marathon explosions, and he was in the courtroom during the Casey Anthony trial. And did we mention hurricanes? Chris has also covered politics for decades, attending a Presidential inauguration, the swearing in of multiple governors in Florida, and the RNC in Tampa. You might even hear him share a kind word with Ryan and Dana in between all the news. Give us a listen!
