GMA News and Public Affairs announces big changes in news line up

November 10 2014

Beginning November 10, GMA News and Public Affairs - the only four-time Peabody Award recipient in the country - unveils dynamic changes in its award-winning newscasts, particularly in GMA 7's primetime newscast 24 Oras, late-night news source Saksi and midday news bulletin Balitanghali on GMA News TV.
 
24 Oras' formidable and time-tested tandem of Mel Tiangco and Mike Enriquez will welcome veteran journalist Vicky Morales as their newest co-anchor. Joining forces, they become the triumvirate to beat on primetime news.

 
24 Oras has been a household name since 2004 when GMA News and Public Affairs launched what would be the Kapuso Network's flagship nationwide primetime newscast. The program has since served the need of viewers for non-biased and balanced news, and later even extended broadcast to include weekends.
 
Monday will also see the rebranding of GMA's regional newscasts into the 24 Oras brand, delivering the news in the distinct 24 Oras style all over the country.
 
Late-night news source Saksi, led by Arnold Clavio, meanwhile, will have Pia Arcangel on board as its newest co-anchor. 

Seasoned broadcast journalist Connie Sison, on the other hand, will take over as Raffy Tima's co-anchor in the leading midday newscast Balitanghali, which airs daily on GMA News TV.

 
Weekend news program 24 Oras Weekend will still be headlined by Jiggy Manicad and Pia Arcangel, while Mariz Umali and Jun Veneracion anchor Balitanghali Weekend.
 
With new anchors on board, expect these fortified news programs to continue providing the public with balanced and unbiased news.
 
"These changes reflect our goal to inject a new dynamism to our newscasts, while still remaining true to our commitment to Serbisyong Totoo- the hallmark of GMA News and Public Affairs," says Senior Vice President for News and Public Affairs Marissa L. Flores.
 
24 Oras airs from Monday to Friday at 6:30 p.m. and Saksi at 11 p.m., while 24 Oras Weekend airs at 5:30 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday on GMA 7.

Balitanghali, meanwhile, airs weekdays at 11:30 a.m. Balitanghali Weekend airs at 12 nn on GMA News TV.
