Caroline Coles's profile
Caroline Coles  is an experienced journalist who brings energy, heart, and hustle to every story. 

She currently serves as a breaking news and traffic anchor, keeping viewers informed when it matters most — from major news moments to the evening commute.

Before joining WPLG, she was the weekend morning anchor and reporter at FOX 35 in Orlando, leading live coverage on everything from hurricanes to high-profile community cases.

Her journalism career began in Salisbury, Maryland, where she worked as an MMJ, turning multiple stories a day and covering national news out of Washington, D.C. While there, she broke a major animal cruelty investigation that led to a change in county law, a proud example of journalism driving real change.

She later joined WPBF 25 in West Palm Beach, serving as a breaking news anchor, reporter, and traffic anchor. She was a key voice in the station’s Project CommUNITY initiative, reporting on racial inequality and social issues. She also field-anchored the Parkland school shooter’s sentencing, covering a pivotal and emotional moment for South Florida.

Originally from Columbia, Maryland, Caroline is a proud graduate of Howard University and holds a master’s degree from Columbia Journalism School. She’s also a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.

Now based in South Florida, where much of her family lives, she’s thrilled to be back in the heart of South Florida — a place she calls her "chosen home." Outside of work, she enjoys Pilates, going to the gym, emceeing community events, mentoring young journalists, shopping, and discovering new places around the city.
