History
Bloomberg TV Philippines launches its first-ever primetime news program, The Big Story, which was first aired on October 24, 2016 at 8:45 pm. It continued to run until the local Bloomberg channel relaunched as One News on May 28, 2018 and expanded its airtime, with an earlier timeslot at 10:00 pm.
On March 4, 2019, the program began broadcasting on free TV via One News' sister channel, 5, replacing Aksyon Tonite as a late-night newscast and airs every weeknights at 10:00 PM, (PST). It is the first English-language newscast of the network since Sentro from 2007 to 2008.[1] However, it will be replaced by the delayed telecast of One Balita Pilipinas, produced by sister station One PH beginning September 23, 2019, anchored by former Aksyon Tonite anchor Cheryl Cosim.
