Balitang Bisdak (also known as GMA Regional TV Balitang Bisdak; transl. Bisdak news) is a Philippine television news broadcasting show broadcast by GMA Cebu. Originally anchored by Bobby Nalzaro, it premiered on October 4, 1999. Alan Domingo currently serves as the anchor.

Overview

Presented from the studios of GMA Cebu, it provides news and features around Cebu City, Metro Cebu, and province of the same name and the rest of Central Visayas including Negros Oriental, Bohol, and Siquijor; as well as Eastern Visayas (including Northern Samar, Western Samar, Eastern Samar, Biliran and Leyte where interviewees speak Waray while Southern Leyte also uses Cebuano, which is spoken by them), through the station's news teams and stringers across the two regions.

The newscast airs every Monday to Friday from 5:10 PM to 5:40 PM on GMA Cebu (TV-7) and via satellite on relay stations GMA TV-10 Tacloban, GMA TV-11 Bohol, GMA TV-5 Dumaguete, GMA TV-5 Calbayog, GMA TV-8 Borongan and GMA TV-12 Ormoc. It is also aired on a slightly-delayed basis over radio station DYSS 999 AM at 6:00 PM.

Balitang Bisdak was also re-aired for national viewers under GTV's late night block "Regional TV Strip" on a weekly basis. It aired every Tuesday at 11:50 PM from May 19, 2020 to July 20, 2021.[1]

The program also airs worldwide on GMA News TV International.[2]

History

The newscast was first aired on Channel 7 in Cebu on October 4, 1999, two years after Bobby Nalzaro left Bombo Radyo Cebu in 1997 and transferred to GMA Cebu as regional news anchor and became a solo anchor of the newscast until 2009 when Atty. Rose Versoza joined in the newscast and stayed until 2015.

To strengthen its commitment of bringing the latest, most credible and most comprehensive news from the region, in July 2013, the newscast started its international broadcast on GMA News TV International alongside other regional newscasts Balitang Amianan (formerly 24 Oras North Central Luzon and 24 Oras Amianan, now One North Central Luzon) and One Mindanao (formerly Testigo, 24 Oras Southern Mindanao and 24 Oras Davao).[3]

Balitang Bisdak ended its 15th year run on November 7, 2014, as it adopted the branding of its now-main newscast 24 Oras into 24 Oras Central Visayas effective November 10.

However, on February 1, 2016, 24 Oras Central Visayas reverted its branding back to Balitang Bisdak, after more than a year hiatus opposite GMA Dagupan's Balitang Amianan.[4]

On November 13, 2017, Balitang Bisdak was relaunched similar to sister newscasts Balitang Amianan and One Mindanao, and it is now available in major parts of Central and Eastern Visayas, by simulcasting the program through its relay stations in Tacloban, Bohol and Ormoc. Co-anchor and veteran correspondent Alan Domingo joined Nalzaro and Quibod-Castro in the anchor team.[5]

Two days after the launch of GMA Regional TV Weekend News (later Regional TV Weekend News, now Regional TV News), on July 29, 2019, Balitang Bisdak updated their graphics and introduced a modified logo and new opening titles patterned with its co-produced national newscast (featuring the sceneries of the program's coverage area). For the first time, the newscast had a more relaxed set-up with couches instead of the tables and chairs that viewers usually see on typical newscasts intending to be an extension of viewers' living room, further connecting the news anchors and the viewers. In addition to the new studio set, Balitang Bisdak opens its doors to the public as it invites viewers to participate as live studio audience every Friday.[6]

On June 29, 2020, the program merged with GMA Iloilo's One Western Visayas due to GMA Regional TV's decision to suspend GMA Cebu's program production due to the increasingly intense situation in Cebu City caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. With that, reports from the newscast delivered in the Cebuano language are then transmitted to the Iloilo station and will be broadcast in the network's regional stations in Western, Central and Eastern Visayas. In interim, the program is de facto named as GMA Regional TV One Western Visayas-Balitang Bisdak newscast. Aside from Cebuano and Waray, the program now uses Filipino on studio presentation alongside Hiligaynon reports from One Western Visayas.[7] This marks the return of a multilingual newscast of the network since GMA Davao's One Mindanao which used Cebuano and Filipino before switching to full Cebuano. On July 2, 2020, Bobby Nalzaro returned as co-anchor.[8] The merger ended on July 10, 2020, when the program returned on July 13 due to the resumption of GMA Cebu's program production. The program also reverted its overall medium of delivery in the Cebuano language.[9]

On May 3, 2021, the program added Samar to its coverage area. And with it, comes a new opening billboard.[10]

From March 17 to 21, 2022, the newscast held a tribute for main anchor Nalzaro, who died at the age of 58,[11] leaving Domingo and Quibod-Castro as anchors. Co-anchor and veteran correspondent Lou-Anne Mae Rondina joined the anchor team on May 2, 2022 for the newscast until July 28, 2023, when the latter was transferred to the morning newscast GMA Regional TV Live! the following week.

On January 26, 2024, co-anchor Cecile Quibod-Castro marks her last appearance after almost 2 decades (although she remains as an anchor in Regional TV News), leaving Domingo as the sole main anchor for the newscast.
