GOOD MORNING AMERICA’S HOMEPAGE:
https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/
Streaming news has changed the way people receive information. Streaming allows for time-shifting of programming and archiving of content. News organizations have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in streaming operations. They have high hopes for the medium.
News networks are chasing breaking news and repurposing broadcast programs for streaming. They may offer reruns, news analysis and documentaries. They also schedule regular nightly news programs.
A major network may decide to interrupt its evening newscast for breaking news. The coverage will typically be passed to a reporter at the location of the breaking news. The reporter may share more information as the event progresses. The network will then switch to the program’s normal format.
A local television station may also have the option to break from the network feed and begin its evening newscast. At this time, the news anchor will remind viewers that there will be a full wrap-up of the event on local news. The network’s anchor may also cut to video of the event.
Depending on the length of the coverage, a network may also integrate its analysis of the event into its regular programming. This may include a live shot of the anchor. The anchor may also change the lower thirds to convey a sense of urgency.
The outro promo may include links to the network’s website and local station’s website. It may also direct viewers to watch the network’s streaming service or watch another program.
