Streaming news has emerged as a major force in the media landscape. It offers viewers a customizable experience. News networks have high hopes for the streaming future. They have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in the streaming business.
A recent example of a breaking news interrupting an overnight news program was the Shayrat missile strike on April 22nd, which interrupted a new episode of Scandal. The network’s newscaster introduced the story, but then stopped and allowed the other network affiliates to join the feed.
This strategy is often used when a breaking news story is of wide interest to the viewer. If the program is longer than 20 or 45 minutes, it may have to be rescheduled. The network may integrate analysis of the story into the programming. It may also pause for a few seconds to reset coverage.
In other cases, the network may continue to show a live shot of the anchor. It may also begin to play an outro promo that directs viewers to the local station website or streaming news channel.
Networks may also continue to show segments that were not broadcast. The coverage may be passed to a reporter at the scene of the breaking event. The reporter may also share additional information as the story breaks. The anchor will remind viewers that more details will be reported on the local news.
Streaming news has also been successful in attracting a niche audience. These viewers are commercial-averse. They don’t want to pay for TV news, but they are willing to switch channels if it looks like they’ll get good coverage.
