About Current News
Breaking news, also known as Newsflash or Special report, is a news item that warrants an immediate interruption of non-news programming (or in the case of national network television and radio, regularly scheduled network newscasts). This is most common on 24-hour cable and satellite news networks which carry a host ready for live interruptions, but was also the standard before those services existed. Typically, the network will notify its affiliates to stand by for the breaking news event, and will begin the interruption with a countdown sequence that allows any affiliated stations to switch to the feed. During this time, lower thirds and graphics may be changed to convey a sense of urgency. Often, the shortest version of the story is used for cutting-ins and alert crawls, and longer stories are reported as full reports.
