Overview
Jay Castro was chosen to be the head of the news department of Teleradio Broadcasting Company on March 22, 1967. He has produced and created several current affairs programs for E Television. Jay Castro later became the head of the news department of the upcoming channel 3 television station on December 21, 1969.

Castro had the idea of just one main news program for Television Three, with versions in the morning, afternoon, and evening. However, since the proposed programming schedule for the upcoming network is from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm, he decided that the program would be broadcast at noon and at night.

The show was premiered on January 4, 1970, a day after the launch of Television Three. During that time, there were only editions 1 and 2 of the program. Edition 1 broadcasts at noon (12:00 nn), and Edition 2 broadcasts at 6:00 in the evening. The program was fully broadcast in color on March 20, 1970. On September 22, 1972, the program was discontinued.

Omega Television started broadcasts on November 29 of the same year, with a different schedule, broadcasting from 5:00 am to 9:30 pm (with a 3 hour break between 11:45 pm and 2:45 pm). With this schedule, three main news programs were aired: Omega Television News Bulletin 1 & 2, and Omega Television Nightly News.

On February 17, 1973, Omega Television rebranded back to Television Three and NewsJournal Three replaced the main news programs from the former TV network. Using the same programming schedule as before, three editions were made: Edition 1 now broadcasts at 7:30 in the morning, Edition 2 broadcasts at 12:00 noon, and Edition 3 broadcasts at 8:00 in the evening. Since then, the schedule of the programs never changed.

Since August 29, 1988, NewsJournal Three opens with two anchors as opposed to one and the program's runtime was changed from 45 minutes to 60 minutes.
