News plus, stylized as News+, was an evening Filipino newscast on ABS-CBN Sports+Action which was aired from January 20 to December 29, 2014, replacing Iba-Balita.[2] It is anchored by Anthony Taberna. Taberna joins with Jef Gaitan as the program's showbiz segment host.[3][4]

The program deviated from traditional news programs as it will provide an in-depth views of daily news and events.[5]

By the end of 2014, however, the program was cancelled on December 29 (two days before New Year's Day celebration) as the station makes its transition into a fully fledged sports channel, leaving the hourly update Fast Break as the only remaining source of news for ABS-CBN Sports+Action until it was cancelled on December 31, 2016 in favor of additional sports coverages.
