Breaking news is a live television or radio news story that warrants an interruption in the usual program schedule to report on the event. Such an interruption can be brief, as in the case of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, or lengthy as in the case of a major natural disaster. The breaking news announcement is usually preceded by a countdown and a distinctive music cue, and it is typically reported by a network anchor or correspondent. Occasionally, lower thirds or other graphics are used to convey urgency.
