Breaking News
Unlike other stories that are covered regularly, breaking news is defined by urgency and immediacy, which often requires journalists to report on events as they occur, rather than following a pre-determined schedule. This type of reporting requires journalists to source information quickly and accurately, often relying on eyewitness accounts and social media. Explore some of the ethical considerations that come with this style of journalism, including the need for speed versus the need to be factual and avoid sensationalism. Also, discuss how social media plays a role in how breaking news is reported and consumed by audiences.
