Current News is a trending topic on social media. It’s a short story about an event or news that is making headlines and is getting popular in the internet. It is also called Breaking News or Special Report, a type of segment in television and radio news broadcasts. Traditionally, breaking news segments were only used for events that required widespread coverage or a dramatic interruption of regular programming. These types of events would include national tragedies such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and severe weather events, such as tornado warnings. However, breaking news is now more common on 24-hour news networks.
