Breaking news is a television or radio news event of sufficient importance to elicit an immediate interruption of current non-news programming. It is often accompanied by an alert graphic, a distinctive music cue and a countdown sequence to allow network affiliates to switch over to the national feed. Depending on the urgency of the event, breaking news reports may be brief or may last for hours or even days. Prior to the advent of 24-hour news networks, such programming breaks were typically reserved for events that deserved nationwide coverage and required numerous stations to interrupt regular commercial advertising. Breaking news coverage is sometimes referred to as a Newsflash or Special Report.
