Breaking news is a television or radio event that warrants an interruption of regular non-news programming. It is typically accompanied by a graphic with a distinctive music cue and a countdown sequence to allow network affiliates to switch to the breaking news feed. The countdown is often augmented by changing lower thirds and other graphics on a network’s broadcast to convey the sense of urgency. Breaking news coverage may last only a few minutes or continue for hours or days.
