About Current News

A trending topic is a story that has become very popular or is being widely discussed on social media. Trending stories are featured on the front page of our website, in our podcasts, and in many of our other products, including our daily newsletter.

Breaking news is an urgent news event that requires a television or radio station to interrupt regular programming to provide live coverage of the event. Breaking news events are often followed by a ticker and/or a dedicated newscast, or may simply be interrupted through a cut-in, typically with an urgent alert graphic and a distinctive music cue. Until the rise of 24-hour news networks, such interruptions were rare and usually limited to major events such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy, where nationwide coverage was required, or severe weather events that elicited widespread warnings such as tornado or hurricane.

This week we look at how states are implementing the Trump-backed SAVE America Act, which introduces new proof-of-citizenship requirements to vote; and an investigation into allegations that the late labor leader Cesar Chavez sexually abused girls. Plus, an expert explains how drones are reshaping war around the world because they’re cheaper than missiles but can still hit targets with precision.
