While a newscast’s title may sound unrelated to the content of the program, a breaking story can be extremely disruptive to television programming. A breaking news story during prime time can disrupt highly-rated shows or newly-aired programs. Likewise, a breaking news event during prime time can disrupt a critically-acclaimed episode of a show. This may be the case when a recent missile strike on a Saudi Arabian city interrupted the April 2017 episode of Scandal.
A major story is called the headline, the most prominent, bold print on the centerfold of a newspaper. It is written to catch the attention of prospective readers. In the same way, trending news has little significance for society and is more reader-focused. For example, stories that receive a high number of web-page hits tend to trend well, even if they do not have much impact on the society at large. For this reason, it’s important to choose the right headline.
There are several different terms for current news. Some are classified as breaking and others are categorized as local. Local news stations often use the term breaking news as a way to emphasize the exclusivity of the coverage. Not all viewers recognize breaking news stories as significant, so “breaking” news is a more generic term. It may be a useful way to categorize and highlight a story. However, it’s important to remember that breaking news doesn’t always mean that the story is breaking. It may also mean that the story is happening right now.
