CNN Philippines Nightly News

CNN Philippines Nightly News with Mitzi Borromeo or simply Nightly News was the flagship late night newscast of CNN Philippines anchored by Mitzi Borromeo that aired every weeknights 9:00-9:30 pm and replayed Tuesdays-Saturdays at midnight. Undergone several incarnations, it began its airing in July 16, 2012 and was axed on February 12, 2016 to give way to the expansion of CNN Philippines Newsroom.

Background

TalkTV/Solar News Channel Era (2012-14)

Formerly anchored by ABS-CBN news presenter Nancy Irlanda, the newscast was first known as Solar Nightly News and was launched on July 16, 2012 on Talk TV, by then aired on SBN UHF Channel 21. The launch of the newscast was a result of the formation as Solar Television Network's news and current affairs division, which in turn was brought by the privatization of Radio Philippines Network (RPN-9) by Solar Entertainment. It was carried over upon the channel's rebranding as Solar News Channel in October 30.

Solar Nightly News was simulcasted on RPN (by then affiliated by Solar Entertainment-operated ETC) from January 14 until November 29, 2013 after the network ceased production of its late-night newscast RPN NewsCap due to the retrenchment of the program's production team and other employees of the privatized network. The simulcast was also a replacement of Solar Network News to RPN's news content, as a result of Solar Entertainment's decision to scrap the cable-only limitation of American Idol season 12 and allow the broadcast to be available to RPN (over-the-air) viewers (in which the original plan was to limit the AI via satellite broadcast to cable viewers while RPN will continue to air Network News at 6 PM). On December 1, 2013, Solar News Channel switched its affiliation to RPN-9, making it a program at its own right.
