Australia’s Ten Network announces it is dropping 10 News+ from weekdays as it expands its 5pm news bulletins. Multiple outlets report the change is made after the network reviews the format and schedule of the channel. Ten tells staff the weekday programming on 10 News+ will no longer run, and newsroom personnel are redeployed to support Ten’s early evening bulletins.
The reports agree that the network’s announcement is made in the same morning communication, indicating an immediate operational shift rather than a gradual transition. While the coverage focuses on the move away from 10 News+ on weekdays, it also frames the change as part of Ten’s broader effort to increase capacity and coverage in the 5pm timeslot. The outlets do not provide additional details on audience or ratings impacts, or on whether the 10 News+ service continues at other times. Overall, the reporting centers on the schedule adjustment and the reassignment of staff to Ten’s early evening news program.
