UNIT News, also just called News, was a non-narrative, albeit in-universe, webpage on the U.N.I.T. website, written by the BBC Web Team and released in 2005. It acted as a place for UNIT to announce news.
Because this Wiki does not treat non-narrative sources as a valid source, the UNIT News page is an invalid source, and cannot be used on valid Wiki pages except in behind the scenes sections.
