Praça TV
Praça TV ("Television Square") is a Brazillian programming block on the broadcast Rede Globo network, where time is set aside for local newscasts on affiliated or owned and operated stations, using a common logo where the affiliate's branding is utilized on one side of a three-dimensional square, with "TV", the newscast name, or an outline map of the state that station serves on the other side. Two timeslots daily are set aside on Globo's schedule; the "First Edition" between 12:00 noon to 12:50 p.m. Monday-Saturday (reduced in half on Saturdays on some weeks due to sports conflicts), and the "Second Edition" from 7:00 p.m. to 7:25 p.m. Monday-Saturday leading into the flagship Jornal Nacional national newscast. In addition, local time is also set aside during the morning show Bom Dia Brasil for local weather forecasts and headlines, known as Bom Dia Praça. The titles of newscasts vary by market and each affiliate.
History
Praça TV started from 1983 until 1989 with the noon and 7:00 p.m. reports, along with a third local report at midnight. The latter was removed in 1989, along with the noon report.[1] The noon report was reinstated on April 6, 1992.
On July 3, 1995, the 7 p.m. report's scheduling was changed slightly in order to avoid direct competition with SBT's telenovelas.[2]
When Encontro com Fátima Bernardes launched on June 25, 2012, some Globo affiliates, which had started their Praça TV newscasts at 12:15 p.m. and devoted the first fifteen minutes to other programming, began to air them universally at noon with all of the other stations in the network.[3]
