About Current News
Trending is an ongoing story on the top stories that people are talking about and interacting with across all social platforms. Often, these stories have the potential to become viral and can change trends around the world. Trending stories are updated frequently.
When breaking news occurs, a network may interrupt its regular non-news programming (or, in the case of 24-hour news networks, their regularly scheduled live newscast) and begin showing a graphic with a distinctive music cue. This is known as a newsflash or special report. Historically, such interruptions were reserved for extremely urgent news events, such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963, and were referred to as news breaks or cut-ins.
