CNN Philippines Newsroom or simply Newsroom is a Philippine television news broadcasting show broadcast by CNN Philippines. Originally anchored by Jing Magsaysay, it premiered on March 16, 2015, as a standalone noontime newscast and was expanded into different editions since February 15, 2016.[2]

The newscast aired the 3:00pm (formerly 10:00am) edition dubbed as Newsroom Ngayon from January 30, 2017 to January 26, 2024, replacing Serbisyo All Access and was replaced by Wanted sa Radyo on RPTV's afternoon timeslot. The weekend newscasts at 6:00pm consist of Newsroom Weekend from March 4, 2017 to January 28, 2024, replacing CNN Philippines Network News Weekend and was replaced by Frontline Pilipinas Weekend on RPTV's weekend late-night timeslot.

The newscast formerly aired the original weekday noontime edition from March 16, 2015 to April 1, 2016, replacing Newsday and was replaced by Balitaan. The 3:00pm edition dubbed as Global Newsroom from April 11, 2016 to December 29, 2017, replacing Global Conversations and was replaced by Amanpour. The 9:00 pm edition from February 15, 2016 to April 17, 2020, replacing CNN Philippines Nightly News and was replaced by The Final Word with Rico Hizon. The 8:00 am edition, anchored by Ria Tanjuatco-Trillo, from 2015 to 2020. The weekend morning edition at 12:00 noon (which was later moved to 9:00 am every Saturdays, and 10:00 am every Sundays) from 2017 to 2020. The 15-minute weekend morning show Newsroom Junior Edition anchored by young contributors trained by CNN Philippines, from September 1, 2018 to March 15, 2020.

The newscast aired its last broadcast on January 28, 2024, as CNN Philippines ceased live news operations on the morning of January 29 ahead of its announced closure on January 31. Ruth Cabal, Mai Rodriguez, Menchu Macapagal and David Santos serve as the final anchors.
