What’s Trending is a news segment presented by CNN. The segments highlight what topics and stories are gaining traction on the Internet and on social media. They are often accompanied by animated graphics that use a distinctive newsflash or special report-style opening and music cues. The format is a variation of breaking news reports used by radio and television stations, especially prior to the rise of 24-hour cable and satellite news channels. Breaking news coverage was typically limited to events that required immediate nationwide coverage and prompted the networks or local affiliates to interrupt regular non-news programming with alert crawls and cut-ins.
