Visionary Experience
Dina Demetrius is a trusted, visionary, and collaborative television journalist and newsroom leader. As an award-winning journalist, she is driven to bridge the distance between the seen and unseen in policy issues, talking to insiders and outsiders, digging to the root of an issue.

In her roles as anchor/host, correspondent, and investigative journalist, Dina crafts stories that illuminate the humanity at the heart of any policy issue. She serves as a freelance national correspondent for CBS Newspath. Her regular award-winning reporting could be seen on the syndicated weekly news magazine show "Matter of Fact with Soledad O'Brien."

Dina's award-winning news magazine stories and episodes have appeared on KCET, Al Jazeera America, and "Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath" for A&E Network.
Dina successfully initiates and leads award-winning investigations, including the causes and consequences of rampant medical debt, the treatment of mentally ill inmates, and a groundbreaking investigation into the lack of fracking regulations in California. This highly recognized story prompted swift changes within California's oil and gas regulatory agency.
Dina began her national reporting career at ABC News as a field and story producer. From the San Bernardino terrorist attack to environmental disasters throughout California, to national policy news, Dina has thoroughly and rapidly responded to breaking news for a variety of news organizations. She has also reported on political campaigns, special events, and culture/entertainment stories. Dina enterprises and develops stories that are broadcast nationally and internationally.
