RTÉ Morning Edition was an Irish news programme broadcast on RTÉ One and RTÉ News Now. It was produced by RTÉ News and Current Affairs.
The programme airs every Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 11:00 and provides a live morning mix of news, sport, business, topical discussion and entertainment. The show was a success upon its launch. The first show started at 09:00 on 28 January 2013 and the first season ran until May 2013. The show returned for a second season on 2 September 2013.
Its biggest competitor was TV3's Ireland AM.
The programme launched on 28 January 2013. The programme received some criticism from its launch as RTÉ does not provide any breakfast television programme with many believing the programme airs too late in the morning.
On 5 November 2014, it was announced that the show would be axed, and not returning in January 2015 after a 2-year run. The final programme was broadcast on Friday 28 November 2014.
