Trending is a feature on the website that shows what stories are currently being talked about in the news. It is a useful tool for journalists to use in their research as well as for viewers of the site to keep up with current events. When a breaking news story occurs, television and radio stations usually interrupt their regular programming (and sometimes regularly scheduled network newscasts) to cover the event. A countdown is often used before the break, with a newsflash or special report opening graphic and distinctive music cues. This type of broadcast was once rare, but is now common at 24-hour news networks.
