The phrase “breaking news” is used to describe breaking news stories. This can be anything from the August 2017 terrorist attacks in London to the 2018 North Korean crisis. This term has become redundant with the rise of 24-hour news channels, which often fill their time with commentary. In addition, breaking news also refers to stories that are of great public interest, but may not yet be breaking news. Using the phrase “breaking news” instead of “breaking story” is also acceptable.
Breaking news may interrupt new or highly rated television programs. This is especially true if breaking news occurs on prime time, like the April 2017 Shayrat missile strike on ABC. Broadcast networks and stations may also suspend regular commercials for several days after the event, so they can focus on covering the breaking story. A brief overview of what to expect during a live broadcast of current news is provided below. Further, a live break in coverage of breaking news could result in a pause in programming.
