And it's a common thing in the Phillippines on television to go back and forth between English and Tagalog on entertainment shows. Don't know about newscasts, though.

ABS-CBN's flagship seven-day-a-week evening newscast "TV Patrol World" and five-day-a-week late night newscast (2007 International
Emmy Award-nominee) "Bandila" are purely done in Tagalog. (I have Filipino Channel at home that's why I know.
As aside here in North America, they do not air "Kapamilya Deal or No Deal", "Pinoy Big Brother" and "1 vs. 100". Endemol franchising issues? Who knows?)
