Breaking News
One curious thing I´ve noticed about breaking news is that, once the initial news has broken and people in the newsroom go scurrying about reporting and researching what has happened, the breaking news becomes boring, that is, every small update or soundbite, no matter how irrelevant or lacking real news value, becomes more breaking news, and then you get nonstop coverage of boring pressers and helicopter shots of police outside a residence, or a snippet of vague noninformation from some governmental or police agency. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
