News.ABS-CBN.com is a news website based in Quezon City, Philippines. It is owned by the media conglomerate ABS-CBN Corporation and it is predominantly targeted to the Filipino market. The website is maintained by the ABS-CBN Digital Media division of ABS-CBN while its contents are provided by ABS-CBN News and The Philippine Star. Aside from the website interface, users can also access its contents through its mobile app available in both iOS, android and Windows.
