Breaking news is a television or radio broadcast in which the latest information about an event that is currently happening, such as an ongoing war or natural disaster, is reported. The report usually interrupts regular non-news programming or a live network newscast. The network will normally alert its affiliated stations to stand by and switch to the breaking news feed. Often, the breaking news will be accompanied by a special graphic or music cue that signals an urgent nature. This type of news coverage used to be restricted to severe weather events, but in recent years has been extended to other subjects as well, especially since the advent of 24-hour news channels.
