Also in the mid-1970s, the late night news on BBC2 was briefly renamed Newsnight,[34] but this was not to last, or be the same programme as we know today – that would be launched in 1980 – and it soon reverted to being just a news summary with the early evening BBC2 news expanded to become Newsday. In general, folks want factual news and not ACOSTA TYPE BIAS…….whether it be directed at the Left or the Right. This is a list of newsreaders and reporters currently employed by BBC Television and BBC Radio. The studio moves also meant that Studio N9, previously used for BBC World, was closed, and operations moved to the previous studio of BBC News 24. Studio N9 was later refitted to match the new branding, and was used for the BBC’s UK local elections and European elections coverage in early June 2009. The BBC is a quasi-autonomous corporation authorised by royal charter, making it operationally independent of the government.
Newsnight, the news and current affairs programme, was due to go on air on 23 January 1980, although trade union disagreements meant that its launch from Lime Grove was postponed by a week.[37] On 27 August 1981 Moira Stuart became the first African Caribbean female newsreader to appear on British television. On Sunday 17 September 1967, The World This Weekend, a weekly news and current affairs programme, launched on what was then Home Service, but soon-to-be Radio 4. As the world’s most trusted international news broadcaster, accurate, impartial news is available via the 24 hour news channel – BBC News – and BBC.com, along with a broad range of insightful and in-depth features across BBC Sport, BBC Worklife, BBC Culture, BBC Future, BBC Reel and BBC Travel. Many of the presenters below also work on other BBC News output, and some also work in other parts of the BBC.
Only network correspondents are listed, but additional correspondents from national and regional news teams also report for the network. Prominent BBC appointments are constantly assessed by the British media and political establishment for signs of political bias. The appointment of Greg Dyke as Director-General was highlighted by press sources because Dyke was a Labour Party member and former activist, as well as a friend of Tony Blair.

The government denounced the reports and accused the corporation of poor journalism. The retirement in 2009 of Peter Sissons[56] and departure of Michael Buerk from the Ten O’Clock News[57] led to changes in the BBC One bulletin presenting team on 20 January 2003. The Six O’Clock News became double headed with George Alagiah and Sophie Raworth after Huw Edwards and Fiona Bruce moved to present the Ten. A new set design featuring a projected fictional newsroom backdrop was introduced, followed on 16 February 2004 by new programme titles to match those of http://cricnewsonline.com/ 24. BBC Weather is delivered by a team of Met Office broadcast meteorologists to deliver forecasts across its range of television and radio services.
News Review and Westminster (the latter a weekly review of Parliamentary happenings) were “colourised” shortly after. BBC News employs a number of business and sports presenters to anchor sections of news programmes. During major international events, such as the Libyan crisis of 2011 and the Gaza conflict of 2014, foreign correspondents may be redeployed from their normal bases to cover such stories temporarily on a rota (when they are usually branded “World Affairs Correspondents” or when in Europe “Europe Correspondents”), before returning to their normal base. This can also happen to cover holidays mainly during July and August, and over Christmas periods. BBC News was at the centre of a political controversy following the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Three BBC News reports (Andrew Gilligan’s on Today, Gavin Hewitt’s on The Ten O’Clock News and another on Newsnight) quoted an anonymous source that stated the British government (particularly the Prime Minister’s office) had embellished the September Dossier with misleading exaggerations of Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction capabilities.
As this was the decade before electronic caption generation, each superimposition (“super”) had to be produced on paper or card, synchronised manually to studio and news footage, committed to tape during the afternoon, and broadcast early evening. The programme ran until the 1980s[27] – by then using electronic captions, known as Anchor – to be superseded by Ceefax subtitling (a similar Teletext format), and the signing of such programmes as See Hear (from 1981). A new graphics and video playout system was introduced for production of television bulletins in January 2007. This coincided with a new structure to BBC World News bulletins, editors favouring a section devoted to analysing the news stories reported on.
One of the most significant changes was the gradual adoption of the corporate image by the BBC regional news programmes, giving a common style across local, national and international BBC television news. This also included Newyddion, the main news programme of Welsh language channel S4C, produced by BBC News Wales. BBC News employs many presenters and correspondents who appear across television, radio and contribute to BBC Online.
This period corresponded with when the Nine O’Clock News got its next makeover, and would use a CSO background of the newsroom from that very same camera each weekday evening. New technology, provided by Silicon Graphics, came into use in 1993 for a re-launch of the main BBC 1 bulletins, creating a virtual set which appeared to be much larger than it was physically. The relaunch also brought all bulletins into the same style of set with only small changes in colouring, titles, and music to differentiate each. A computer generated cut-glass sculpture of the BBC coat of arms was the centrepiece of the programme titles until the large scale corporate rebranding of news services in 1999. The World at One, a lunchtime news programme, began on 4 October 1965 on the then Home Service, and the year before News Review had started on television. News Review was a summary of the week’s news, first broadcast on Sunday, 26 April 1964[26] on BBC 2 and harking back to the weekly Newsreel Review of the Week, produced from 1951, to open programming on Sunday evenings–the difference being that this incarnation had subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearing.
