Current News is a breaking news headlines segment that airs during regular programing on television or radio. It is generally a short, non-speech news report that interrupts other programming, typically with a distinct music cue and a special graphics overlay (also known as a “Newsflash” or a “Special Report”). Breaking news may require stations to suspend or discontinue regular commercial advertising; the nature of the breaking story may necessitate extended coverage lasting for several hours or even days. Prior to the advent of 24-hour news networks, news breaks were only used for major events such as the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, or when severe weather threatened public safety; in the latter case, localized alert crawls and cut-ins during regularly scheduled programming were utilized.
