Newsbreak is an online news and current affairs magazine published in the Philippines. It began publication as a weekly magazine on January 24, 2001, and converted to its current format in 2006. Newsbreak is now described as "the investigative and research arm of Rappler".^[1]

Newsbreak has published stories covering various issues that concern Congress, the presidency, security sector, judiciary, the media, local governments, elections, business and the economy. The magazine is most notable as a watchdog, having published investigative reports on social ills and corruption. Newsbreak's writers have consistently been nominated for the Ongpin awards since its inception.

Since its migration to online publication, Newsbreak has come out with various special editions covering topics such as the 2007 Philippine Elections, the scandal-laden Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3, and Corporate Social Responsibility, to name a few (see links below). It is currently a partner of the media corporation, ABS-CBN, where they manage the website of its news and current affairs division, abs-cbnNEWS.com.
