Trending is a section of Current News that talks about what is currently hot in the world of news. It is also known as Newsflash or Special Report. Breaking news is a television, radio or online news story that elicits nationwide coverage and requires numerous stations to interrupt regular programming. Typically, the station’s network feed will alert affiliates to stand by for an interruption; this is followed by a countdown sequence and a distinctive graphic open with a music cue. Depending on the event, breaking news may last for only minutes or continue for several hours or days. Breaking news is the main function of 24-hour news networks, which have anchors available to interrupt non-news programming or regularly scheduled newscasts.
