With the reduction of MediaCorp News Group employees and the increased demand for more variety programme content on Channel U, MediaCorp announced that the news programmes on Channel U would end with effect from 29 March 2010.

Beginning from 20 October 2014, Hello Singapore (Chinese: 獅城有約) took over Singapore Today on weekdays, with news segments at 6.30pm and 7.00pm, it was broadcast live on weekdays & News 8 At One will not be broadcast on weekends.

Channel 8 News started broadcasting on new headquarters 1 Stars Avenue starting 13 March 2017, leaving the former headquarters Caldecott Hill after the broadcast of News Tonight on 12 March 2017.

This move also brings an overall change for news graphics, subtitles, and the upgrade of hardware.

However, there are some exceptions: Commentaries would not be heard at the end of the drama series during the credits, regardless of production company (e.g. Wawa Pictures, Mediacorp Studios Malaysia), whether if there are no featurettes, promotions, theme songs or snippets.
