ONE News
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
See News One - for 24-hour news channel from Pakistan.
One News is the news-service produced by Television New Zealand. The service is broadcast live, directly from TVNZ's broadcasting centre in Auckland. The flagship news bulletin is the nightly 6pm news, but ONE News also has midday, afternoon and late night news bulletins, as well as current affairs shows such as Breakfast and Close Up.
The 6pm programme is New Zealand's most-watched news programme. As of 2005, it has a market share of 54% (700,000+ each night). In June 2007, One News had a 38% share of its target 25-54 demographic.

[edit] History
The first NZBC Network News bulletin was broadcast on 3 November 1969 and was read by Dougal Stevenson.
In 1971, the Warkworth Satellite Station was opened, which meant news stories would be received a lot quicker.
1973 saw Angela D'Audney become New Zealand's first woman newsreader. Other news readers at the time included Phillip Sherry, Jenny Goodwin, Alma Johnston, Doug Armstrong and Roger Gasgoigne.
Then in 1975, NZBC was dissolved and split into make Television ONE, South Pacific Television and Radio New Zealand. By 1980 South Pacific Television relaunched as TV2 and both stations were combined into Television New Zealand.
Up until the end of 1990 TVNZ operated 4 regional news programmes based in the 4 main regions. Top Half, originally hosted by John Hawkesby and Judy Bailey, was the regional news for the upper North Island based in Auckland. Today Tonight, presented by Geoff Bryan, covered Wellington and the lower North Island. Mainland Touch focused on Christchurch, the Canterbury region, and the upper South Island. In Otago and Southland, The South Tonight was based in Dunedin and presented by Hilary Muir-Clark. Originally the regional news ran for 20 minutes during the Network News at Six between the sports and weather news but was moved to before the main 6pm news in 1989 to make way for the Holmes show.
In 1988, Judy Bailey and Richard Long started presenting the main 6pm edition of ONE Network News. They would remain as the main news anchors for the next 10 years.
A year later, the first international correspondents made their debuts - Susan Wood in Sydney, Australia and Liam Jeory in London, England. In April of that year, the first episode of Holmes, a 30 minute current affairs show following Network News went to air hosted by Paul Holmes. One of the show's key moments was the infamous Dennis Conner interview in which Conner, who was being provoked, walked off the show. The incident provided Holmes with headlines the next day.
In 1998, TVNZ signed 3 News anchor John Hawkesby to replace Richard Long. But when Haweskby began presenting the Network News at Six alongside Judy Bailey, there was a public outcry over the separation of Judy and Richard, that lead to Long reinstated as co-anchor at 6pm. Hawkesby later took TVNZ to court, a dispute that he subsequently won.
On the last day of the millennium, December 31, 1999 One Network News was relaunched and renamed as One News.
2003 saw a major shake up of TVNZ's news and current affairs programming with entering head Bill Ralston making sweeping changes to the formats of all prorgrammes. A new state-of-the-art studio came into use for One News programmes, but many presenters were culled. The main 6pm bulletin reverted to a single-headed broadcast with Judy Bailey as chief anchor. The changes saw the end of Long and Bailey's partnership after almost 15 years. Jim Hickey, one of TVNZ's most popular weather presenters, and April Ieremia also left in 2003.
Then on 2 November, 2004, Paul Holmes resigned from TVNZ following failed contract negotiations. He announced he was moving to a rival TV company, Prime Television, which had offered a three-year contract. Consequently the Holmes show ended immediately and was replaced by a new current affairs show Close Up, which followed the same format as Holmes but was now hosted by Susan Wood (New Zealand). The new programme aired at 7pm, following the main One News.
In October of 2005, TVNZ announced that it would not be renewing long-standing flagship broadcaster Judy Bailey's contract; some observers believe this was a direct reaction to the programme's market share decline in Auckland to 3 News. Judy Bailey signed off at the end of the 6pm news on 23 December 2005. She was TVNZ's longest serving newsreader and had been reporting and presenting for 34 years.
On January 23rd 2006, the 6pm bulletin reverted back to double-headed presentation with Wendy Petrie and Simon Dallow taking over from Bailey.
In December 2006, Susan Wood announced her resignation from TVNZ due to health reasons. Mark Sainsbury was confirmed as anchor for Close Up in 2007, with Paul Henry deputising.
In April 2007, job cuts were made in the news and current affairs department of TVNZ, with all One News programmes expected to lose some staff. Meanwhile, in September 2007, Jim Hickey returned as TVNZ's weatherman after an absence of four years.
February 24 2008 was the last day for the 'glass set'. Which was used from 2003 to this year. Anchor Miriama Kamo stated that the set 'has served us well'. The bulletin then closed with a shot of the set and the lights being turned off.
The next day, the 6pm bulletin relaunched with a new set. This set was built with more wood than previous sets, and contains new graphics. The music is relatively the same.

One News underwent a format change in 2006 to combat falling ratings. The main news bulletin begins at 6pm, starting with national and international news stories in the first 35 minutes. At 6:35, they go through the major news headlines. During this time there are two advertisement breaks. Sport news starts at 6:40 and is covered for 15 minutes, followed by business news and the sharemarket. Weather and oddspot items finish off the bulletin.
In November 2007, new weather graphics were introduced, as well as 'weather highlights' screening at about 6:25pm. A short introduction to One News Weather was also implemented for the 6pm edition, showing either a satellite image of tomorrow's weather or the weather icons for the next day. This is shown before the One News opening graphics and headlines and is presented by the weather presenter for that night.
Midday, 4:30 and Tonight are half an hour long with the latest headlines, sports news and weather updates. Tonight also presents the headlines that will appear in major New Zealand newspapers the next day. During Breakfast, One News is updated every half hour, and during "Good Morning", there are 5 minute updates at 10am and 11am.
