eNCA Tweaks Schedule: News Night Shortened, Money Line Earlier

eNCA, South Africa's most watched news channel, has tweaked its late prime time schedule.

Its long running 3 hour flagship broadcast, News Night, which is anchored by Iman Rappetti and Jeremy Maggs, loses its last half hour and is now only 2 and a half hours per evening.

Moneyline, the finance and business news show hosted by Siki Mgabadeli and Arabile Gumede now moves up half an hour to the 8:30pm slot with a general news bulletin now airing in its former 9pm slot.

The move sees eNCA finally breaking the full hour of non news content that aired in the 9pm hour (Moneyline followed by a magazine show), the longest period of time outside of late nights that the channel does not have any actual news on.

It also means that eNCA's late prime time and late night schedule is more simplified: news at the top of every hour, non news at the bottom.
