Serving as the channel's flagship newscast, the noontime edition airs on weekdays from 12:00 PM to 12:30 PM, while its primetime edition airs at 5:30 PM to 6:00 PM (PST).
The newscast is simulcast on radio through Radyo5 92.3 News FM in Mega Manila and its provincial Radyo5 stations nationwide.
The newscast also airs worldwide via Kapatid Channel and Aksyon TV International.
Background
One Balita is the radio-TV newscast of the FM radio station Radyo5 and radio-TV news channel One PH. The program is also similar to other radio-television or teleradyo news programs during noontime such as Headline Pilipinas of DZMM, and DZRH Network News of DZRH, because it is broadcasting live from a television news studio but simulcast on radio and television feed instead of using the radio studio for the radio feed.
History
As a noontime newscast
The newscast was launched on February 18, 2019 at 12:00 n.n. It serves as One PH's noontime newscast answering to Balitaan (CNN Philippines). The show is anchored by Raffy Tulfo, also an anchor for 5's Aksyon sa Tanghali, and Marga Vargas.
Expansion to primetime
On September 9, 2019 at 7:00 p.m., One PH premiered a primetime edition of the newscast under the name One Balita Pilipinas anchored by Cheryl Cosim. In the interim, it replaced the first 15 minutes of the hour-long Sa Totoo Lang, another primetime news program on the channel before the latter was bumped to 7:15 pm and reduced its time to 45 minutes.
On September 23, 2019, both editions of the newscast started to air on 5. The noontime edition was reformatted into a three-way simulcast on 5, One PH and Radyo5 and expanded into 30 minutes, with the Pilipinas primetime edition airing tape-delayed at 10 p.m.; serving as 5's de facto late-night newscast, replacing the English-language The Big Story, produced by sister station One News. Cosim previously anchored TV5-produced Aksyon Tonite before its cancellation in 2019.
On February 28, 2020, One Balita Pilipinas aired its last episode on TV5, reverting it to a satellite-exclusive newscast via One PH, but remains simulcasting on Radyo5 outside PBA game dates.
COVID-19 pandemic reformat changes
On March 17, 2020, both editions of the newscast were placed on hiatus as One PH opted to air sister channel's One News special coverage on the Luzon-wide Enhanced Community Quarantine period against the COVID-19 pandemic.
On May 7, 2020, One Balita Pilipinas went back on air as part of the provisional programming of 5, One PH, One News (later removed), and Radyo5. It airs every weeknights at 6:30 pm and is presented by Cheryl Cosim and News5 chief correspondent Ed Lingao.
On June 1, 2020, the newscast launch its new titlecard and OBB. On the same day, the original noontime edition of the newscast went back on air and it was renamed as "One Balita Pilipinas," which resulted to air twice a day with the same name.[1]
On June 8, 2020, One PH launched a new program titled Idol in Action, which features live public service on television and is presented by Raffy Tulfo, with Marga Vargas and MJ Marfori. After 2 complainants and some segment, they will proceed to news using the name of One Balita Pilipinas. The format of the show is similar to Aksyon sa Tanghali and Balitaang Tapat which contain news and public service.[2]
Relaunch
On September 14, 2020, One PH announced that Jay Taruc will be the newest anchor for the primetime newscast on October 5, replacing both Cosim and Lingao, as the said primetime edition will be airing its last broadcast on TV5 by October 2, reverting again to a satellite-exclusive newscast via One PH for the second time since February 28, and it was replaced by the newest primetime newscast, Frontline Pilipinas which will debut on the same day at the same time, thus placing the primetime edition moved to an earlier time at 5:30 pm. It also presents new segments such as Bilog ang Balita, Mojo: Mobile Journo, and Ride PH Group.
On October 2, 2020, Cosim replaced Tulfo as the anchor of the newscast's original noontime edition which aired on TV5 until October 16 to make way for the launch of Lunch Out Loud on October 19.[3][4][5][6][7]
