"ITV Weekend News" The "ITV Morning News" is the early morning news bulletin on the British television network ITV, broadcasting every morning of the week at 5.30am. It is produced by ITN.

The "ITV Morning News" comprises a look at the morning's news stories, a brief business update, and a look at some of the day's newspaper front pages. Some EPGs and TV listings refer to the programme as the "ITV Early Morning News".

The programme began in early 1988 with the advent of 24-hour television on ITV. It originally ran from 5.00 to 6.00am every morning and was the first pre-subscription television outlet in Britain to broadcast regular segments from CNN as well as the "ITN World News".

During the summer of 2008, the Saturday and Sunday editions were dropped to make way for early morning children's programming, as provided by CITV. However, the weekend editions returned in late August of that year.
