Synopsis

News @ 1 is the flagship afternoon newscast of People's Television Network in the Philippines. Shown every weekdays at 1:00 pm Philippine Standard Time, it is anchored by Sandro Hermoso, Princess Habibah Sarip and Kirby Cristobal. Former anchors Czarina Lusuegro and Ralf Rivas were reporters and news anchors from another Government-owned television station, IBC 13. However, Lusuegro and Rivas were replaced by newcomers Sandro Hermoso and Princess Habibah Sarip, just few weeks after its inception because of labor and contract issues. It was also the first time to have a Muslim newscaster on a national newscast in the Philippines in the name of Princess Habibah Sarip. The newscast is now simulcast on radio in all Radyo ng Bayan stations nationwide. On January 13, 2013, the program has been extended to weekends via its spinoffs News @ 1: The Week that Was on Saturdays, and News @ 1: Junior Edition on Sundays. The Sunday edition uses English, instead of Filipino on delivering the news.
