In 1996, when the then-Sarimanok Channel 37 (later renamed as the Sarimanok News Network (SNN), and now known today as ANC, the ABS-CBN News Channel) was launched, 80% of its programming were produced in the network's regional operations centers located in Baguio, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Davao, Legazpi, Zamboanga, among others. The programming consists of newscasts which is aired live via satellite, public affairs shows such as Banat Visayas, Sulong Mindanao, drama, comedy and musical programs.[2]
