Breaking news is the interruption of non-news or regular programming to report a significant event, such as a sudden death of a high-profile figure. The breaking news alert is commonly known as a newsflash or special report, and often preceded by an opening graphic or distinctive music cue. Until the emergence of 24-hour news networks, such interruptions were generally reserved for events that required nationwide coverage and would cause numerous stations to interrupt their regular programs simultaneously. Some network affiliates also employ special report tickers during regularly scheduled broadcasts, reducing the need for cut-ins and alert crawls.
