BBC News

===2000s===
Following the relaunch of BBC News in 1999, regional headlines were included at the start of the BBC One news bulletins in 2000.<ref>{{Cite web|title=BBC One London - 1 January 2000 - BBC Genome|url=https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/schedules/bbcone/london/2000-01-01|access-date=8 March 2021|website=genome.ch.bbc.co.uk|archive-date=1 March 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210301172301/https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/schedules/bbcone/london/2000-01-01|url-status=live}}</ref> The English regions did however lose five minutes at the end of their bulletins, due to a new headline round-up at 18:55.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Kevin|first=Deirdre|title=Snapshot: regional and local television in the United Kingdom|url=https://www.vau.net/system/files/documents/GB_Regional_TV_in_the_UK_April2015.pdf|website=www.vau.net|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210418003313/https://www.vau.net/system/files/documents/GB_Regional_TV_in_the_UK_April2015.pdf|archive-date=18 April 2021|url-status=dead}}</ref> 2000 also saw the ''Nine O'Clock News'' moved to the later time of 22:00.<ref>{{Cite web|last=McQueen|first=David|title=A very conscientious brand: A case study of the BBC's current affairs series, Panorama|url=https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/4898275.pdf|website=www.core.ac.uk|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171204192014/https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/4898275.pdf|archive-date=4 December 2017|url-status=live}}</ref> This was in response to ITN who had just moved their popular ''[[ITV News at Ten|News at Ten]]'' programme to 23:00.<ref>{{Cite news|date=15 October 2001|title=BBC news move 'halts decline'|language=en-GB|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/1600622.stm|access-date=8 March 2021|archive-date=11 April 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210411062848/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/1600622.stm|url-status=live}}</ref> ITN briefly returned ''News at Ten'' but following poor ratings when head-to-head against the BBC's ''Ten O'Clock News'', the ITN bulletin was moved to 22.30, where it remained until 14 January 2008.

The retirement in 2009 of [[Peter Sissons]]<ref>{{Cite web|date=17 October 2019|title=Remembering Peter Sissons, the TV news presenter with unflappable onscreen authority|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/peter-sissons-death-tv-news-presenter-itn-bbc-channel-4-question-time-a9142781.html|access-date=8 March 2021|website=The Independent|language=en|archive-date=18 April 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210418020258/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/peter-sissons-death-tv-news-presenter-itn-bbc-channel-4-question-time-a9142781.html|url-status=live}}</ref> and departure of [[Michael Buerk]] from the ''Ten O'Clock News''<ref>{{Cite web|date=7 June 2002|title=Buerk quits BBC Ten o'Clock News|url=http://www.theguardian.com/media/2002/jun/07/bbc.tvnews1|access-date=8 March 2021|website=the Guardian|language=en|archive-date=18 April 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210418011151/https://www.theguardian.com/media/2002/jun/07/bbc.tvnews1|url-status=live}}</ref> led to changes in the BBC One bulletin presenting team on 20 January 2003. The ''Six O'Clock News'' became double headed with [[George Alagiah]] and [[Sophie Raworth]] after [[Huw Edwards (journalist)|Huw Edwards]] and [[Fiona Bruce]] moved to present the ''Ten''. A new set design featuring a projected fictional newsroom backdrop was introduced, followed on 16 February 2004 by new programme titles to match those of BBC News 24.

BBC News 24 and BBC World introduced a new style of presentation in December 2003, that was slightly altered on 5 July 2004 to mark 50 years of BBC Television News.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/3829605.stm |title=Fifty years of TV news |access-date=3 April 2007 |date=5 July 2004 |work=BBC News |first=Chris |last=Heard |archive-date=22 December 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061222142448/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/3829605.stm |url-status=live }}</ref> The individual positions of editor of the ''One'' and ''Six O'Clock News'' were replaced by a new daytime position in November 2005. Kevin Bakhurst became the first Controller of BBC News 24, replacing the position of editor. Amanda Farnsworth became daytime editor while [[Craig Oliver (media executive)|Craig Oliver]] was later named editor of the ''Ten O'Clock News''. The bulletins also began to be [[simulcast]] with News 24, as a way of pooling resources.

Bulletins received new titles and a new set design in May 2006, to allow for ''Breakfast'' to move into the main studio for the first time since 1997. The new set featured [[Barco NV|Barco]] videowall screens with a background of the London skyline used for main bulletins and originally an image of cirrus clouds against a blue sky for ''Breakfast''. This was later replaced following viewer criticism.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/breakfast/5048764.stm|title=Breakfast's new look|access-date=3 April 2007|date=5 June 2006|work=BBC News|archive-date=20 November 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061120095948/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/breakfast/5048764.stm|url-status=live}}</ref> The studio bore similarities with the ITN-produced [[ITV News]] in 2004, though ITN uses a [[Colour-separation overlay|CSO]] [[Virtual studio]] rather than the actual screens at BBC News. Also, May saw the launch of ''World News Today'' the first domestic bulletin focused principally on international news.

BBC News became part of a new BBC Journalism group in November 2006 as part of a restructuring of the BBC. The then-Director of BBC News, [[Helen Boaden]] reported to the then-Deputy Director-General and head of the journalism group, [[Mark Byford]] until he was made redundant in 2010.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/bbc/8057696/BBCs-Mark-Byford-made-redundant.html ''BBC's Mark Byford made redundant'', Neil Midgley, Daily Telegraph,11 October 2010] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171013235402/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/bbc/8057696/BBCs-Mark-Byford-made-redundant.html |date=13 October 2017 }}.

On 18 October 2007, [[Mark Thompson (television executive)|Mark Thompson]] announced a six-year plan, ''Delivering Creative Future'', merging the television current affairs department into a new "News Programmes" division.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2007/10_october/18/reform.shtml|title=Radical reform to deliver a more focused BBC|publisher=BBC Press Office|date=18 October 2007|access-date=25 October 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20071020051207/http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2007/10_october/18/reform.shtml| archive-date= 20 October 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/organgrinder/2007/10/post_51.html|title=BBC cuts: look on the bright side|work=Guardian |date=22 October 2007|access-date=25 October 2007 | location=London |first=Steve |last=Hewlett| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20071024120744/http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/organgrinder/2007/10/post_51.html| archive-date= 24 October 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref> Thompson's announcement, in response to a £2 billion shortfall in funding, would, he said, deliver "a smaller but fitter BBC" in the digital age, by cutting its payroll and, in 2013, selling [[BBC Television Centre|Television Centre]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7050440.stm|title=BBC cuts back programmes and jobs|work=[[BBC News Online]]|date=18 October 2007|access-date=25 October 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20071020035603/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7050440.stm#tables| archive-date= 20 October 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref>

The various separate newsrooms for television, radio and online operations were merged into a single multimedia newsroom. Programme making within the newsrooms was brought together to form a multimedia programme making department. [[BBC World Service]] director Peter Horrocks said that the changes would achieve efficiency at a time of cost-cutting at the BBC. In his blog, he wrote that by using the same resources across the various broadcast media meant fewer stories could be covered, or by following more stories, there would be fewer ways to broadcast them.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2007/11/multimedia_news.html|title=Multimedia News|work=[[BBC News Online]]|date=12 November 2007|access-date=19 December 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20071115103603/http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2007/11/multimedia_news.html| archive-date= 15 November 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref>

A new graphics and video playout system was introduced for production of television bulletins in January 2007. This coincided with a new structure to BBC World News bulletins, editors favouring a section devoted to analysing the news stories reported on.

The first new BBC News bulletin since the ''Six O'Clock News'' was announced in July 2007 following a successful trial in the Midlands.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6291338.stm|title=BBC One gets extra news bulletin|work=BBC News|access-date=11 July 2007 | date=11 July 2007| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070714232708/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6291338.stm| archive-date= 14 July 2007 |url-status = live}}</ref> The summary, lasting 90 seconds, has been broadcast at 20:00 on weekdays since December 2007 and bears similarities with ''[[60 Seconds]]'' on [[BBC Three]], but also includes headlines from the various BBC regions and a weather summary.

As part of a long-term cost cutting programme, bulletins were renamed the ''BBC News at One'', ''Six'' and ''Ten'' respectively in April 2008 while BBC News 24 was renamed BBC News and moved into the same studio as the bulletins at BBC Television Centre.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/media/article3735982.ece |title=BBC rings changes with news revamp |work=The Times |location=London |date=13 April 2008 |access-date=30 April 2009 |first=Dipesh |last=Gadher |archive-date=7 September 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080907171053/http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/media/article3735982.ece |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www2.tv-ark.org.uk/news/bbcnews24/2008.html |title=BBC News Channel – 2008 |publisher=TV Ark |date=21 April 2008 |access-date=30 April 2009 |url-status = dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110510021938/http://www2.tv-ark.org.uk/news/bbcnews24/2008.html |archive-date=10 May 2011 }}</ref> BBC World was renamed ''BBC World News'' and regional news programmes were also updated with the new presentation style, designed by [[Lambie-Nairn]].<ref>{{cite web |author=Peter Horrocks |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2008/04/new_news.html |title=BBC NEWS – The Editors Blog – New News |publisher=BBC |date=21 April 2008 |access-date=30 April 2009 |archive-date=5 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200805003251/https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2008/04/new_news.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

2008 also saw tri-media introduced across TV, radio, and online.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Uncorrected Evidence m274|url=https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200708/cmselect/cmfaff/memo/annual/ucm27402.htm|website=publications.parliament.uk|access-date=31 May 2020|archive-date=26 July 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200726153245/https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200708/cmselect/cmfaff/memo/annual/ucm27402.htm|url-status=live}}</ref>

The studio moves also meant that Studio N9, previously used for BBC World, was closed, and operations moved to the previous studio of BBC News 24. Studio N9 was later refitted to match the new branding, and was used for the BBC's [[2009 United Kingdom local elections|UK local elections]] and [[2009 European Parliament election in the United Kingdom|European elections]] coverage in early June 2009.
