Chris Fischer
Chris Fischer joined WHP CBS21 in February of 2010 as the
Weekend Sports Anchor and Reporter. Before moving to
Central PA, he worked in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina in
the same capacity.
Since coming to CBS21, Chris has had the opportunity to
cover the 2010 NFL draft, the Hershey Bears run to
consecutive Calder Cup titles and Penn State football. A
die hard Phillies fan, his most enjoyable experience to
date is covering the Phillies at Spring Training. Plus he
considers covering the Eagles and Ravens at their training
camp as a huge perk of the job.
Before making the move back over the Mason Dixon line,
Chris had the opportunity to cover plenty of the PGA Tour
and college athletics. Being at Augusta National for The
Masters still marks his favorite location he’s covered an
event at.
Prior to being a Weekend Anchor, he was the Sports
Director at KNBN in Rapid City, South Dakota. Giving him
the chance to learn how to ride a bull, learn how to snow
board and cover 8 man football. Which were all unique
experiences for a guy from Clearwater, Florida.
Before stepping in front of the camera, Chris worked at
WFTV in Orlando, Florida as a Sports Producer while still
in college at UCF.
Growing up a quarter of a mile from the Phillies spring
training complex made him a ball park rat and eventually a
bat boy for the team. PA sports have been ingrained him
since an early age with his father originally from the
Keystone State. So he considers the ability to work and
live in the heart of the Pennsylvania as a blessing.
