Telediario

Telediario (Tele-journal) is the flagship television newscast produced by Televisión Española (TVE), the television division of Spanish state-owned public broadcaster Radiotelevisión Española (RTVE). It is the longest running program in the history of television in Spain as it has been broadcast daily since 15 September 1957.

Three Telediario editions a day are produced by Televisión Española news services and are simulcast live on La 1, on 24 Horas news channel, on TVE Internacional and on RTVE Play. Previous editions are also available on their online platform on demand. Additional international editions are also produced and aired on TVE Internacional every day.

TVE's territorial centers in every autonomous community produce and broadcast in regional variations in each of them, a shorter midday local newscast, each one with a different name, following the format and visual identity of Telediario.

Televisión Española was established at a building of Paseo de la Habana in Madrid and began its broadcasts on 28 October 1956. Within a week, the news services were created and its initial newscast, named Últimas Noticias, began broadcast; with the weather forecast first airing on 2 November 1956. This initial newscast only lasted until that summer break. On 15 September 1957, the evening edition of Telediario was premiered, with the afternoon edition following on 28 April 1958.

On 14 July 1959, TVE opened its Miramar studios in Barcelona and on 12 February 1964, its production center in the Canary Islands. When Prado del Rey was inaugurated on 18 July 1964 in Pozuelo de Alarcón (Madrid), all entertainment programming (variety, dramas, children's programming, etc.) was soon transferred to the new facilities and the Paseo de la Habana studios was transformed into a dedicated news and current affairs facility, inclusive of studios for Telediario. They were there until they were also transferred to the Prado del Rey complex in 1967 to join the other divisions of TVE.

In August 1966, TVE stationed its first permanent foreign correspondent in London, followed in 1968 by the ones in New York, Vienna and Brussels. On 24 May 1971, the first bureau was opened in Bilbao, followed by the ones in Santiago de Compostela on 25 July 1971 and in Seville on 29 July 1971, which would later become the first territorial centers. In 1975 it started its broadcasts in color.

On 13 November 1983, the last live episode of Telediario from the Prado del Rey news center was broadcast, as TVE's central news services were moved to the new Torrespaña studio facilities in Madrid at the foot of the broadcasting tower. On 14 November, Telediario was broadcast from the Torrespaña studios for the first time, and it has been broadcast from there ever since. To celebrate the move, a new CGI intro for the program, featuring the Torrespaña transmitter, premiered in 1984.

On 14 July 1989, it was presented out-of-studio for the first time. It was partially presented live from the Champ de Mars in Paris, with the Eiffel Tower in the background, on the occasion of the celebrations for the bicentennial of the French Revolution. Since then, the main presenters have anchored on location on special occasions or when major stories break.
