On English-language television the first newscast, part of ''[[CBC News Magazine|CBC Newsmagazine]]'', was given on September 8, 1952, on [[CBLT-DT#History|CBLT]] (Toronto), the only English station then telecasting. Later that year ''CBC National News'' was introduced (anchors: [[Larry Henderson]], [[Earl Cameron (broadcaster)|Earl Cameron]], [[Stanley Burke]]), then changing its name to ''[[The National (TV program)|The National]]'' in 1970.<ref>[[John Robert Colombo|Colombo, John Robert]]: {{Google books|zNYUAAAAYAAJ|Colombo's Canadian references|page=99|keywords="CBC National News"}}</ref>

In April 2014, the national weather centre was effectively disbanded due to CBC budget cuts (Martin had left the CBC a few months prior); weather presenters at local CBC stations were retained but with the added responsibility of supplying reports for ''[[The National (CBC)|The National]]'' and [[CBC News Network]].<ref name="tgam-cbc-twn">{{cite news |last=Houpt |first=Simon |date=November 10, 2014 |title=Its outlook stormy, CBC turns to the Weather Network |work=[[The Globe and Mail]] |url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/cbc-weather-network-strike-partnership/article21524153/ |access-date=December 30, 2014}}</ref>
 
In November 2014, citing difficulties implementing this new system, the CBC announced a one-year trial content sharing partnership with [[The Weather Network]], the privately owned cable specialty channel, which went into effect on December 8. Under the partnership, in exchange for access to weather-related news coverage from the CBC, The Weather Network provides the national weather reports seen on ''The National'' and CBCNN daytime programming, as well as local forecasts for [[CBLT-DT|CBC Toronto]]'s weekend newscasts.<ref name="tgam-cbc-twn" /> Apart from Toronto, weather coverage during local newscasts was not affected, and [[CBUT-DT|CBC Vancouver]] meteorologist Johanna Wagstaffe continues to provide weather coverage for the Vancouver-based (primetime) editions of ''[[CBC News Now]]'' on CBC News Network.<ref name="cbc._Joha">{{Cite web| title = Johanna Wagstaffe – CBC Media Centre| work = www.cbc.ca | access-date = June 25, 2021| url = https://www.cbc.ca/mediacentre/bio/johanna-wagstaffe }}</ref>

The CBC sets out to maintain its accuracy, integrity and fairness in its journalism. As a Canadian institution and a press undertaking, the CBC set out the Journalistic Standards and Practices and works in compliance with these principles. Balanced viewpoints must be presented through on-the-air discussions. As it is with other public and private journalistic undertakings, credibility in the eyes of the general population is seen as the corporation's most valuable asset. The CBC Ombudsman is completely independent of CBC program staff and management, reporting directly to the President of the CBC and, through the President, to the corporation's board of directors.<ref>{{cite news |title=The Office of the Ombudsman |publisher=Canadian Broadcasting Corporation |url=http://www.cbc.ca/ombudsman/ |url-status=dead |access-date=April 29, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/19980208170109/http://www.cbc.ca/ombudsman/ |archive-date=February 8, 1998}}</ref>{{citation needed|date=July 2022}}
