24 Horas (24 hours) is a Chilean newscast, broadcast by Televisión Nacional de Chile since 1990. It started airing after the return to democracy, when it was decided to give a new look to the newscast. The program is the successor to the newscast Noticias, which in turn replaced TV Noticias.
It has four different editions: "Tu Mañana" (mornings), "24 Horas al día" (midday), "24 Horas central" (evening) and "Medianoche" (late night).
Its first edition was broadcast on October 1, 1990, led by Cecilia Serrano and Bernardo de la Maza on the "Edición Central". Gradually, the editions of the newscast gained ground in the ratings on rival Canal 13, overtaking the latter in the mid-1990s. On October 10, 2001, coinciding with the première of the soap opera Amores de Mercado (Market's Loves), which preceded the news, the Central Edition scored 42.2 rating points between 21:00 and 21:56, a figure that hasn't been matched since.
On March 8, 2004, it changed its image to match the new logo of TVN. There were other major changes that year; the old presenters, Bernardo de la Maza, Cecilia Serrano, were replaced with Amaro Gomez-Pablos and Consuelo Saavedra. This move was criticized.
Between 1999 and 2002, it had a fifth edition entitled Edición Vespertina de 24 Horas (24 Horas Evening Edition), which aired at 18:00. It was hosted by Consuelo Saavedra, Mónica Rincón, María Isabel Toloza, and later by journalist María Jesús Sáinz.
Local newscasts are issued at 14:20 and 21:35.
In 2002, the newsletter closed the signal transmitted by the Santiago Metro, called MetroTV. In 2005, she returned to the United States, the journalist Consuelo Saavedra and assumes the leadership of the main news with Amaro Gómez-Pablos. One of the highlights of the news was its live coverage of the Iraq War and especially the fall of Saddam Hussein, featuring Santiago Pavlovic, Rafael Cavada and cinematographer Alejandro Leal.
In October 2007, 24 Horas started a channel on YouTube, making Televisión Nacional de Chile the first television station in the country with an official presence on the site.
