During prime time, breaking news interrupts the local newscast. This is because the newscaster at the location of the breaking event may share more information as it breaks.
When the coverage is over, the network may resume previous programming. The local station may also be allowed to go away from the network feed. This gives the station a chance to broadcast a special version of the news, such as an extended edition.
The network may also show a live shot of the anchor during the coverage. Depending on the length of coverage, this may be repeated. The anchor will remind viewers that the full wrap-up will appear on the local news.
Networks may also integrate analysis of the story. This may include a “reverse countdown” and lower thirds that are altered to convey a sense of urgency.
The network may also show a video of the story, or cut away to that video. Often, the opening graphic will also be changed. This is to emphasize the importance of the breaking news.
The network may also have an outro promo, which directs viewers to other platforms. This may include the network website, streaming news channels, or local station websites.
Networks may also use “special report” instead of breaking news. This is often used when the news organization has already reported on the story.
The news report may last several hours. It may include information on an internal alert service. The network may also have the reporter at the location of the breaking event.
