Breaking news is a news story that elicits urgent coverage or requires immediate interruption of regular programming, such as a national network newscast. Such breaks are typically accompanied by a countdown sequence, urging affiliates to stand by for the news. The resulting newsflash or special report is often abridged and may use different lower thirds than normal. Until the advent of 24-hour news networks, such interruptions were usually reserved for major events such as the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, which triggered nationwide coverage and forced many stations to interrupt their regular programming. This type of report is also known as a newsbreak, an alert crawl, or a breaking news ticker.
