News broadcasting


Television news refers to the practice of disseminating current events via the medium of television. News Bulletins are programmes lasting from seconds to hours that provide updates on world, national, regional or local news events. Television channels may provide news bulletins as part of a regular program that is aired daily or more often at standard times. Less often, television shows may be interrupted or replaced by "news flashes" to provide news updates on current events of great importance or sudden events of great importance.
