A number of studies in the world have shown that the use of new media continues to take on the role and function of conventional media.

Facing this condition, news television must improve and adapt to convergence. This study aims to find out how tvOne as one of the conventional news television faces new digital media attacks. What are the steps that tvOne has done in adapting and converging? Based on qualitative research through observation on tvOne for 5 months, supported by indepth interviews with several key informants from supervisor level to editor in chief, the results descriptively showed that tvOne as the news television has been converging since 2011. Convergence occurs in two stages, that was convergence through hardware communication technology and convergence through new media.
