3News Ireland (previously TV3 News) is the news hub which produces news and current affairs programming for the TV3 Group based in Ireland. It provides news for free-to-air channels TV3, 3e and be3 and content online, on-demand and on mobile.
3News launched on September 20,1998 with its aim to become Ireland's first independent television news provider. The first broadcast was presented by Gráinne Seoige (from Nuacht TG4) and Alan Cantwell with entertainment news by Lorraine Keane, sport by Trevor Welch and weather by Martin King. Gradually, over the years additional presenters were added including Claire Bryne and Collette Fitzpatrick.
The TV3 Group's News and Current Affairs department holds responsibility for producing 3News content which is available on television, online, mobile and on-demand and available across its three channels. As of 2017 €3 million has been invested in news output by the broadcaster featuring a state of the art studio which launches on September 4, 2017.
Upon launch 3News used a standard news studio followed by a chromakeyed news studio. In early 2017, the Chromakeyed news studio was dropped and replaced by a temporary studio.

Some notable 3News team members include:
3News has played an important role on Ireland AM and it's sister shows Saturday AM and Sunday AM. 3News on Ireland AM also provides entertainment news, funny stories, weather, traffic updates and sports news. News bulletins are broadcast every half hour on Ireland AM. A news ticker also runs throughout the programme, keeping viewers informed of the news headlines.
3News formerly TV3 News launched its first news bulletin on September 20, 1998 under the TV3 News @ 6 branding airing Monday – Friday for an hour at 18:00, with half an hour bulletins on Saturdays and Sundays. A year later following a failed attempt to compete with RTÉ News: Six One this bulletin was moved to 17:30 and 19:00. Following the TV3 Group's acquisition of content from ITV and a schedule change the 19:00 bulletin was moved to News @ 6.30 eventually being dropped in April 2007. For a time, the 17:30 programme was called First Edition.
