Morphology
The meaning 'a television or radio broadcast devoted to reporting current events' is directly and predictably built from 'news' (information about current events) + 'program' (a prepared broadcast). This simple noun+noun compound follows common compositional patterns found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
News program comes from early radio and TV, where a planned program was a 'show' that brought news to listeners at a set time. So a news program means a radio or TV 'show' that 'reports' current events.
