In 2008, BBC News transitioned from multiple separate newsrooms to a streamlined multimedia newsroom model. This transformation involved restructuring leadership, integrating 'News Interactive', 'TV News', and 'Radio News' under one roof. Key changes included co-location, enhanced information sharing, and the introduction of a multimedia editor role. By 2012, the new Broadcasting House in London was launched, featuring a specially designed newsroom that centralizes global and UK output, prioritizing breaking news and ensuring a cohesive approach across all platforms.
