History
[edit]2010-2012: Pre-launch
[edit]Prior to the launch of the newscast, GMA Bicol aired Flash Bulletin, a daily news bulletin program aired several times from Monday to Friday from September 10, 2010 in order to provide local news, significantly during the Peñafrancia Festival.[3] It was followed by the launch of another daily program, Isyu Ngonian on November 22 of the same year.
2012-2014: As Baretang Bikol
[edit]The newscast was launched on September 17, 2012, several weeks after the launch of GMA Bicol as an originating station, and expanded its coverage to the entire Bicol region. Its main anchor, Elmer Caseles, used to anchor the two preceding programs of the regional station.
2014-2015: As 24 Oras Bikol
[edit]Following changes in now-main newscast 24 Oras, Baretang Bikol was rebranded as 24 Oras Bikol since November 10, 2014.[4] However, the newscast was suddenly got cancelled after more than two years of broadcast (opposite GMA Ilocos' 24 Oras Ilokano, formerly Balitang Ilokano, which aired in June 2012) due to the strategic streamlining happened to all provincial stations of the network. Following the cancellation was the retrenchment of its staff and personalities and the closure of the network's regional news department.[5]
GMA Bicol would not have a regional newscast until 5 years later, with the launch of Balitang Bicolandia on February 1, 2021.
