Trending talks about the latest breaking news and what’s in the headlines.
Breaking news is live, urgent coverage of a significant current event that is so significant as to warrant an interruption of ongoing non-news programming (and, in some cases, regularly scheduled network newscasts). The break usually begins with a countdown sequence to allow local affiliate stations to join the national feed. The newscast then pauses, with the anchors calling viewers to stand by for further coverage. Prior to the advent of 24-hour news networks, programming interruptions were generally reserved for only the most important events, such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
