Breaking news is a news event that warrants the interruption of non-news programming (or, in cases of national network newscasts, regular scheduled news coverage) to bring the public the latest information. It is a common practice on 24-hour news channels, where the news anchors are always on-hand to interrupt live programs at any time to cover breaking stories as they happen. Depending on the story and its severity, it may also be accompanied by special graphics and station identification elements designed to convey urgency. Prior to the advent of the 24-hour news channel, such “Newsflash” breaks were typically reserved for very severe and widespread events such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
