A breaking news story is an event that is occurring right now and requires immediate coverage by a television or radio station. The breaking news story may also require the interruption of normal programming on a network affiliate to provide live reporting, often called a special report or a newsflash. This is common on 24-hour news networks, which have an anchor available to interrupt their regular non-news programs at the time of a major story. In North America, this type of coverage is often reserved for severe weather events that require immediate, continuous coverage, such as a hurricane or a tornado outbreak.
