Trending is a short news segment that talks about current events that are being talked about online, in social media, and in the real world. It is a great way for the channel to engage with their audience and let them know what stories are popular at the moment. This segment was first introduced in April 2017.
Before 24-hour news networks were common, breaking-news coverage was limited to major events such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy, which required numerous stations to break from their regular non-news programming to provide live coverage and analysis. This was often done through the use of a special ticker, sometimes overlaid on top of station imaging or program reminders.
