Trending is the current news and headlines that are currently being talked about by media outlets. Typically, trending stories are reported by major newspapers and television news channels. If a breaking news story is of sufficient significance, a national network newscast may interrupt regular programming, or a nationally syndicated program such as talk shows, to provide coverage. Prior to the emergence of 24-hour news networks, such breaks were typically reserved for extremely urgent events that required nationwide coverage, such as the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy in 1963, which triggered a newsflash and caused network affiliates to suspend normal commercial advertising.
