Trending is a segment on the US-based online magazine Current News that talks about the most interesting or trending news stories from the internet. It was launched in October 2014 and it is written by the staff at Current News. The article discusses the hottest trending news from social media, pop culture and political events, as well as breaking news. A breaking news story is an event that elicits a significant interruption of regular programming, such as a national emergency, terrorist attack, or weather emergency. A special graphic and a countdown sequence often precedes the break, which can last for one to multiple hours or even days. This type of break is common for 24-hour news networks, but was rare prior to the invention of such services.
