Anna Karmina Balderrama Constantino-Torres 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 were also co-hosting partners in DWPM Radyo 630 and TeleRadyo Serbisyo/DZMM TeleRadyo's Isyu Spotted, formerly branded as On the Spot, until September 30, 2025.

Early life and career
Constantino is the granddaughter of nationalist and historian Renato Constantino, niece of activist and musician Karina Constantino David, daughter of nationalist activist Renato "RC" Constantino Jr., and cousin of fellow journalist Kara David. Constantino studied film at the University of the Philippines Diliman, but after graduation applied for a post at the now-defunct Sky News instead of a film outfit in Makati, the news outlet being just five minutes away from her family's house. At Sky News she opted for the production assistant's job instead of the reporter's job that was offered to her by then-Sky Cable head David Celdran. Within a year at the news outlet she was already writing and producing special reports, retaining this job until the media outlet's merger with Sarimanok News Network that created ANC. During an ANC news anchor's sick leave, Constantino was offered to chair the anchor's post as temporary replacement. == Personal life ==
