About Trending
Breaking news is a term used to describe a news event that is urgent and requires the immediate attention of the media. When breaking news occurs during a regular TV or radio broadcast, the program is interrupted and a new segment begins with a graphic and distinct music cue. The news segment may last a few minutes or may extend over multiple hours or days, depending on the nature of the story. Often, national network newscasts will alert affiliate stations to stand by for the breaking news and will begin a countdown sequence before interrupting their programming. Prior to the advent of 24-hour news networks, station and network interruptions for breaking news were rare.
