NRK News (in Norwegian: NRK Nyheter) is the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation's news organisation. It produces news around the clock for radio and television in Norwegian and Sami. There are two main newsrooms, one for radio (NRK Dagsnytt ) and one for television (NRK Dagsrevyen ); both are headquartered in the Norwegian capital Oslo. NRK also produces local news bulletins at newsrooms around the country. Internationally, NRK correspondents are based in Washington, D.C., Nairobi, Beijing, London, Moscow, Brussels, Berlin and Istanbul. Urix , produced by NRK News, is a television program that specializes in international news.

NRK Nyheter is a radio station that broadcasts news 24 hours a day in Norwegian, with some programming in Swedish from Sveriges Radio and overnight relays of BBC World Service programmes in English.

NRK's newsrooms also post news in Norwegian on the NRK website. The Norwegian Meteorological Institute with its website Yr.no and NRK Sport are the news department's closest partners.

NRK News aims to convey as reliable and unbiased news, information and documentaries as possible. As the largest media house in Norway, NRK News is watched closely by its users. There is an ongoing debate as to whether the corporation meets its aims.

In journalism, local news refers to coverage of events, by the news, in a local context that would not be an interest of another locality, or otherwise be of national or international scope. Local news, in contrast to national or international news, caters to the news of their regional and local communities; they focus on more localized issues and events. Some key features of local newsrooms includes regional politics, weather, business, and human interest stories. Local news readership has been declining in recent years, according to a recent study. And as more and more television consumers tap into streamed programming, local news viewership is beginning to decline. Nikki Usher, an associate professor at the College of Media at the University of Illinois, argued in The Complicated Future of Local News that "critical and comprehensive local news is a recent invention, not a core element of the history of American democracy.”
