''Newsbeat'' is the flagship news programme on BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 1Xtra. ''Newsbeat'' is produced by BBC News but differs from the BBC's other news programmes in its remit to provide news tailored for a specifically younger audience.〔(BBC Radio 1 Service Licence ) BBC Trust, August 2009; Retrieved 31 March 2010〕 It is primarily hosted by Chris Smith and Tina Daheley. The 15-minute ''Newsbeat'' programme is broadcast at 12:45 and 17:45 during the week on Radio 1 and 1Xtra. Short bulletins are also heard throughout the day on both stations on the half hour with extra bulletins broadcast at peak times. ==History== BBC Radio 1's remit as a public service broadcaster meant it had to broadcast news. ''Newsbeat'' was launched in 1973 in response to the launch of a network of commercial radio stations across the UK which supplied a news service very different from the style of traditional BBC News. The programme's first presenter was the Radio 1 DJ Ed "Stewpot" Stewart and he was succeeded by Laurie Mayer and Richard Skinner. Although unconfirmed by the BBC, it is widely thought that the name "Newsbeat" was taken from the Radio Caroline news service of the same name, as was the concept of short bulletins on the half hour. Caroline first used the name (and broadcast 1/2 hour headlines) in the 1960s. Roger Gale, who had previously worked on Radio Caroline North, was the show's first producer. Following changes in September 2012, the vast majority of ''Newsbeat ''bulletins are simulcast on both BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra. Each station has bespoke bulletins during the weekday breakfast show with the first shared bulletin at 10:30. Newsbeat won Gold for Best News & Current Affairs Programme at the Radio Academy Awards on 13 May 2013.〔 〕 It is believed that BBC World Service will pilot a global edition of Newsbeat, a bulletin aimed on the station aimed at younger listeners. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Newsbeat」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
