Nuebe Patrol

Nuebe Patrol is the local television counterpart of TV Patrol in Pagadian City. It is the only regional newscast that is not produced by the ABS-CBN Regional Network Group, and is instead locally produced by MIT-RTVN Inc. The program is aired throughout Zamboanga del Sur at around 5:00-5:45 PM live from ABS-CBN Pagadian News Center with replays at 7:30 AM on ABS-CBN Channel 9 and Channel 14. The newscast replaced TV Patrol Northwestern Mindanao, which ended in 2009 due to its controversial copyright protection violation committed by Leo Santillan, the local producer of the program. As it is not produced by the ABS-CBN Regional Network Group, the program uses a format, graphics package and theme music independent from the main national newscast TV Patrol and its regional versions. Its content is also editorially independent from ABS-CBN News. However, ABS-CBN News may also provide news coverage on the region through TV Patrol Chavacano and TV Patrol Northern Mindanao.
