bbc news on the national programme would not air until at least 6.00pm each day. this was in agreement with the newspapers, so to ensure people would buy a morning newspaper. the national programme did not have a dedicated news department until 1934, and only then was it used to edit and broadcast news material from other wire agencies in the country and around the world. the start of the second world war in september 1939 would see the start of a proper news service on the new bbc home service with morning news bulletins commencing at 7.00am each day.
