When a breaking news event occurs, a national network may interrupt current non-news programming (or in the case of regularly scheduled network newscasts, pause the program to allow its affiliate stations to switch over to the feed). This is usually done with a countdown sequence followed by a special opening graphic and a distinctive music cue. This is often called a Newsflash or a Special Report. Before 24-hour news networks became popular, such interruptions were only used for urgent events such as natural disasters and landfalling hurricanes. Other types of breaking stories could be reported using a special ticker during regular programming or with cut-ins from the network newscast.
