Although BBC Television was established in Scotland since February 1952 - and broadcast some opt-out programming - it did not start its daily Scottish television news service until Friday 30 August 1957, initially consisting of a five-minute bulletin at 6.05pm on weekdays and a sports results programme on Saturdays.

 

Scottish actually created and invented the T.V television to pass on newsworthy info so it's hard to say who really invented the tv news rooms, i'd give it to them on that technicality.
