TBS News at 6

TBS News at 6 (Chinese: TBS新聞在6 or TBS6點新聞) formerly TBS News at 18, is the flagship daily evening television news program for TBS News, the news division of the TBS television network in Tseng. First aired on December 27, 1960, it is the most watched newscast in the Tseng Republic.

The program first aired at various times, first 7pm and then 5:30pm before settling on 6.

History
Before the airing of a nightly newscast in Tseng, newscasts would take place randomly, as early as 8am or as late as 7pm. In 1957, TBS Chairman Jesse Valadez met with his fellow colleagues to discuss a potential routine nightly newscast. The idea was popular, and TBS Evening News signed on the air at 6:58 PM, local time, on December 27, 1960. Georges Ying was the first news anchor, delivering a story about a car crash in Tseng City.

It proved that 7pm, the airing time for the newscast, was too late, so TBS News moved it to 5:30pm in 1963, and its current 6pm on its June 19, 1968 broadcast. After 6pm was its established time, TBS Evening News was renamed TBS News at 18 in 1973, because back then almost all Tsengians used 24-hour clocks (18 is 6pm in 24 hour time).

In 2011, due to everyone in Tseng using 12-hour clocks now, the newscast was renamed TBS News at 6.
