United News (Ukrainian: Телемарафон «Єдині новини», romanized: Telemarafon «Yedyni novyny»), Telemarathon or UA together (Ukrainian: UA разом, romanized: UA razom) is a joint information telethon which was launched on February 24, 2022, at the start of Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine. It began broadcasting at the start of the invasion on February 24, 2022, as #UAtogether (Ukrainian: #UAразом, romanized: #UArazom) and broadcast on Rada TV, the official television channel of the Verkhovna Rada.
Since February 26, 2022, television channels owned by four Ukrainian media groups, namely 1+1 Media Group, Starlight Media, Inter Media Group, Media Group Ukraine (until its closure on July 22, 2022) and My-Ukraina (since November 8, 2022), as well as public television channel Pershyi and Rada TV continued to broadcast around the clock to provide information to the public regarding the war. Each channel forms its own slot lasting 6 hours.
By the end of 2022, viewership had dropped to 14% of the television audience, and at the end of 2023 to 10%.[1]
Over 60% of Ukrainian journalists consider telemarathon a form of censorship.[2]
