GOOD MORNING AMERICA’S HOMEPAGE:
https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/
Breaking news is used to describe a story that is happening at the moment. Breaking news is a common term in the media, and it is used to describe a live story or an event that has become a major focus. The term can also refer to any news that is of widespread interest to a large number of viewers. Breaking news is sometimes used in place of the term “just in” in some media. Regardless of terminology, current news is a staple of many news programs.
Most radio stations refrain from relaying breaking news stories during their play-by-play broadcasts of college and professional sports. During these times, radio listeners are more interested in listening to commercials and station identification than breaking news. Thus, the radio stations do their best to minimize breaking news coverage. However, there are many examples of radio stations not limiting their coverage of breaking news to commercial breaks. Therefore, listeners should expect some interruptions from live coverage, especially if it involves a major story.
Despite these challenges, breaking news is essential for the success of news broadcasts. Breaking news in prime time may interrupt popular and highly-rated programs. The news can also interrupt popular shows with time left to air. For example, ABC’s coverage of the Shayrat missile strike interrupted an episode of Scandal. In this instance, current events were not the only important story in the news that day. The broadcaster would have to choose the right time to broadcast breaking news.
