@ASKconard I was watching CNN the moment they broke in with news about Lady Diana's car crash. Yes, back then, "Breaking News" actually meant something. In the year 2011, celebrity rehab announcements are what pass for "breaking news".
Princess Diana's Death, OJ Simpson Chase, Columbine, North Hollywood Shootout, The Jet Fuel And Steel Beam Incident Of 2001.... good times, bruh, good times.
Say what you will about CNN / news media today (2022), but back when this was current you KNEW some sh*t was going down. I recall literally running into the room if I heard this to see what was happening. Too bad the term 'breaking news' is so over used these days (hint to any news producers who actually stumble upon this comment, 'breaking news' shouldn't be used literally every day unless the world is actually ending...)
Yeah, one time when you saw this, you knew something serious was happening. Now, it's as relevant as hearing somebody's car alarm. There's an all news channel here in Toronto that uses it for their slogan. CP24...Toronto's Breaking News. Yes, it's their slogan. Pathetic
In the 90's, it was a big deal when this came on the air.
When “Breaking News” actually meant something…
I've heard this referred to as "plane crash music" When it was used you knew something major was happening...
TWA Flight 800 and the Valujet crash. Plane crash music is sadly on point.

You shouldn't have cropped it.

This 1991 -????
Donald J Trump worst nightmare
I remember in the 90's whenever this was used it usually meant someone's shit just got rocked.
Yeah, and now it means something we were expecting for quite some time has just happened as expected.
