24-hour news cycle

The 24-hour news cycle refers to the continuous nonstop news coverage that updates around the clock, without breaks. Media organizations use this system to provide real-time reporting on events as they happen, ensuring viewers stay informed at any time of day or night. This constant flow of information is enabled by digital technology, social media, and multiple platforms that keep news available constantly. While it helps keep the public quickly informed, it also leads to rapid reporting that may sometimes prioritize speed over accuracy. Overall, it reflects a media environment that operates nonstop, staying perpetually connected to current events.
