Trending is the latest news and updates on what’s going on in the world.
Breaking news is an urgent story that requires immediate coverage. If it occurs during a regular network newscast, the network will pause and ask affiliates to stand by as they switch over to their breaking news feed. The breaking news will then open with a graphic overlay and distinctive music cue. It will often also include a station identification and lower thirds that are changed to convey a sense of urgency. This is common for severe weather events and was the norm before 24-hour news networks existed, although breaking news alerts are now sometimes used during regularly scheduled programming.
