South African media group eMedia Investments is relaunching its free-to-air news offerings. From Monday 5 August 2019, eNews 8PM and the satellite tv platform's OpenNews, will be repositioning and merging under the banner called e.tv News.
Openview viewers can watch e.tv News from 4:00PM-7:30PM Monday to Friday on Channel 120, while our e.tv viewers can catchup on their latest news at 1:00PM and 8.00PM Weekdays.
Speaking ahead of the channel's brand refresh, OpenNews Managing Director Nisa Allie said, "2019 marks the 21st anniversary of e.tv being South Africa's independent, commercial, free-to-air tv station and we are delighted about OpenNews becoming e.tv news. The decision comes from our desire to be more closely aligned to the e.tv brand. We were born of e.tv and its commitment to provide free, reliable, independent news." expressed Nisa
"Good Journalism and the desire to tell South Africa's story is at the heart of e.tv news and we are really excited to bring seasoned journalist, Annika Larsen onboard. She is a trusted value and a familiar face to the e.tv audience." Allie concluded.
The lineup will also bring Naledi Maleo and Kokesto Sachane.
OpenNews was launched on the Openview platform in late 2018.
