ITV News Meridian is a British television news service broadcast and produced by ITV Meridian. The news service is produced and broadcast from ITV Meridian's studios in Whiteley, near Fareham with reporters also based at bureaux in Didcot, Brighton and Maidstone.

The service transmits to a coverage area across three sub-regions in the South and South East of England.

Freesat and Sky viewers in Brighton can receive either Meridian South or Meridian South East region on channel 103 as default via the depending postcode. This means that the city's news, sport and weather is covered by both sub-regional programmes.

Its main competitors are BBC South's main evening programme BBC South Today in the South and Thames Valley regions; and BBC South East's main evening programme BBC South East Today in the South East region.

The programme is currently EDF Programme of the Year for London and the South East (for coverage of the 70th anniversary of D-Day) and the Royal Television Society's Southern Centre Programme of the Year (for coverage of the Eastbourne Pier fire)

Meridian's flagship regional news programme was launched as Meridian Tonight on 4 January 1993 – three days after Meridian replaced Television South.

Three sub-regional editions of the programme were broadcast simultaneously, from studios in Southampton, Maidstone, and Newbury. The three original sub-regional services for Meridian News/Tonight were:

Meridian's first Controller of News was Jim Raven, who had previously been the Editor for the South East edition of TVS's Coast to Coast.
