LIVE: NBC News NOW – Feb. 7
Current News
Breaking news is a story that’s happening right now. This can include a shooting, a tornado, or a building fire. When a breaking news story breaks, reporters are in a rush to be the first to report it. But too often, they end up reporting things that turn out to be wrong. This can be especially true when it comes to eyewitness accounts. In the case of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, NPR reported she had died based on bad information from a panicked bystander.
Ensure your reporting is truthful, and that you confirm all of your sources’ claims. This is important for the safety of your readers, and for the integrity of your journalism. Use these tips when covering a breaking news story, and you’ll be sure to get it right.
