Breaking news is television and radio coverage of a developing story that, due to its urgency, requires the interruption of non-news programming or, in some cases, even regular, scheduled newscasts. A breaking news event may be announced with a countdown, or the network news feed of a current program may pause to allow affiliates to switch over to the new report, which usually opens with a distinctive graphics package and music cue. Often, a reporter will introduce the piece and provide further analysis in-studio or via phone, satellite, broadband (B-GAN), etc. Until the advent of 24-hour news channels, such breaks were only used for extremely serious events that required widespread coverage, such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
