Primera Balita (lit. First News in English) was a morning news program aired on GMA Dagupan, patterned from GMA's national morning show Unang Hirit. The program was premiered in 2009, and aired alongside regional morning shows Buena Mano Balita of GMA Cebu, Arangkada of GMA Iloilo/GMA Bacolod and Una Ka BAI of GMA Davao. The program preempts Unang Hirit's 2nd hour (around 6:00 to 7:00am) block.
After 6 years of airing, the program had their final broadcast on April 24, 2015 following the strategic streamlining undertaken by the network.[1] Unlike its other morning shows cancelled, the program managed to say goodbye to the viewing public.[2]
