The BBC is to extend its 10pm news programme by 10 minutes, beginning in January, in a move which will increase regional and national news in its flagship bulletin.
The longer bulletin, which will run from Monday to Thursday, comes after a five-month trial in the run-up to the general election which proved popular with viewers, according to the BBC.
“Through research, our audience has told us that they want more from our evening news service. The format we first tried before the election allows audiences to see more regional stories and gives us the opportunity to get under the skin of the issues alongside content that reflects arts and culture in different parts of the UK.”
This hsows how social media and online news has not only created a decline in newspapers but also starting to kill TV news broadcasts.
