One News (stylized as "one news") is a 24/7 Philippine pay television news channel owned by MediaQuest Holdings through its subsidiary Cignal TV. It was launched in May 2018 exclusively on satellite provider Cignal. One News is the first MediaQuest channel launched under the One branding (presently known as the One Network Media Group), along with the free TV sports channel One Sports, cable sports channel One Sports+, Tagalog -language news channel One PH, lifestyle portal One Life, and now-defunct premium entertainment channel One Screen.

It is an aggrupation of the news division units within the MediaQuest group, namely TV5 Network's News5 division and the Philstar Media Group's newspapers The Philippine Star and BusinessWorld.

History

Before its launch, the channel was known as Bloomberg TV Philippines, which was a joint venture of Bloomberg L.P., Cignal TV, and TV5 Network.

On May 28, 2018, Cignal TV formally launched One News, an English-language news channel featuring content from the news divisions of the MediaQuest group (News5, The Philippine Star, and BusinessWorld), Bloomberg TV Philippines, and Probe Productions. It retained most of the programs played on its predecessor.

In 2019, TV5 began airing selected programs from One News, such as Agenda with Cito Beltran and The Chiefs. In addition, the channel launched a dedicated news website, which is currently managed by the PhilStar Media Group.

On March 17, 2020, One News, along with One PH, temporarily suspended its regular programming due to the island-wide "enhanced community quarantine" against COVID-19 in Luzon. The news channel aired a special edition of One News Now.

Programming

One News program lineup includes national newscasts, talk shows, business newscasts, and public affairs shows. Several programs from Bloomberg Television, One PH, True TV, One Sports, and PBA Rush, along with third-party content partners (including NewsWatch Plus, ABS-CBN and Probe Productions), also air on the channel. Some programs can also be seen for free via TV5, RPTV, ALLTV2 and A2Z, as well as internationally through Kapatid Channel and AksyonTV International.
