Dan Matics joined WSOC-TV as an anchor/reporter in September of 2022. Before coming to Charlotte, he spent six years at the FOX-owned station in Tampa, Florida as a reporter. During his time in Florida, he focused on covering the City of St. Pete and broke his fair share of stories in the wild world of Florida politics. Dan loves telling stories that help victims of violent crimes, or stories that hold those in power accountable. In 2010, he started his career in West Virginia at WOWK as a producer, reporter and photographer before working at WCHS in Charleston where he was a morning anchor and reporter. His most memorable stories include covering hurricanes and tornadoes, the Tampa Seminole Heights serial killer, a chemical spill that contaminated the drinking water for 300,00 people and exposing the negligence of a Southern West Virginia health clinic that infected patients by reusing needles. When he’s not working – he loves boating, golfing, skiing, and exploring restaurants.
