Trending Talks About Current News

Breaking news is a television or radio broadcast event which requires an immediate interruption of regular non-news programming, or of a scheduled newscast. Generally, the event is sufficiently important to merit national coverage and widespread network affiliates’ participation. This often elicits the use of a special newsflash graphic, typically with an urgent music cue, and may involve the news anchors being alerted to interrupt their normal program for a live special report. Some major networks also use a Special Report ticker during regularly scheduled newscasts, lessening the need for cut-ins. This style of reporting is also referred to as a Special Report or Newflash.
