BandNews FM is a Brazilian all-news radio network owned by Grupo Bandeirantes de Comunicação. First broadcast on May 20, 2005, it is the first Brazilian radio network that provides non-stop news programming 24 hours a day, considering that CBN does intersperse news with talk shows.
The network's format consisted of 20-minute rotating newscasts with 3 of these minutes allocated for analysis and opinion from the anchors and columnists. The vast majority of its programming is produced and broadcast live from São Paulo.
