BBC World News television, the BBC’s world online and newsgathering teams and representatives from BBC World Service radio and online, have combined forces to create a multimedia world news operation to support the BBC’s international news services.

BBC World News has also begun broadcasting from its new studio at London’s BBC Television Centre. The new larger studio design has been created to fit with the

recent channel re-fresh.

Said Richard Porter, head of news for BBC World News, “We’ve already made some

significant changes this year with our new name of BBC World News and the channel

rebrand. Now our international news talent is in one location, we can further strengthen our output across TV, online and radio platforms.”
