NRK Alltid nyheter (English literal translation: NRK Always News) is a special news radio station that transmits 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 cooperate on posting 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 therefore watched closely by the users. There is an ongoing debate whether the corporation meets the demands they put on themselves or not.
