That's covered by the ad hoc interviews, which may be for breaking news or the live shot from a pending hurricane zone or something more mundane like a reporter outside the courtroom recapping a verdict from earlier in the day.
What could happen in these cases is there is some sort of "live desk" staffed by someone from the reporting staff when the need arises. Or, rethink the way breaking news is covered altogether ... does it really need a handoff back to an anchor?
- reaperducer 8y agodoes it really need a handoff back to an anchor? Yes. While the anchor reads on-air, there are dozens of people behind the scenes doing other things. Some journalistic, some technical. All necessary and frenzied. This isn't really the right medium to describe it all, though. During a serious news event, it can be quite the madhouse. I've never seen a Hollywood film that really captured it.
