Verified Live, also called Verified Live with Matthew Amroliwala, is a news programme that premiered on both the UK feed and international feed of BBC News channel on 22 May 2023 as part of a refresh following the merger of the two news channels.[1] The programme is mainly hosted by Matthew Amroliwala. The programme's main aim is to provide fact-checking of news (including corresponding images and footages) and analysing its factual accuracy based on verified data and facts live on air, while still bringing verified facts and updates especially to breaking news. It works closely with BBC Verify, BBC News's team of 60 investigative journalists who regularly verify news reports and data.
Prior to the BBC News channel mergers, Global, which was also presented by Matthew Amroliwala, aired for the last time on 3 March 2023 on the then BBC World News. However, BBC announced that Amroliwala would stay as a presenter for the merged channel.[2] Between 2007 and 2010 it had originally been an edition of World News Today and then The Hub (2010–2012).
On 17 May 2023, BBC News CEO Deborah Turness announced that the corporation was unveiling a team of 60 journalists called BBC Verify.[3] The team would be tasked to do full fact-checking by investigating video and clips, analysing data, and also making their own investigations. One of its intentions was to build audience trust and to prove the accuracy of BBC News's output. The team would appear across the majority of BBC News's television, radio, and online networks.
Verified Live was announced to be the first programme to work closely with BBC Verify, to begin broadcasting on 22 May 2023, with Amroliwala as the main presenter. The programme is co-presented by BBC Verify journalists, such as Lindsay McCoy, Ros Atkins (analysis editor), and Marianna Spring (the BBC's disinformation correspondent), during fact-checking segments.
