A news feed is a stream of information displayed on social media platforms, website pages, and search engines. News feeds are controlled by algorithms that determine what is shown and how frequently, based on the user’s preferences, activity, and engagement with other users. They are an important tool for online communication and marketing, as they allow businesses to connect with potential customers and promote relevant information.
Live news feed is a type of broadcast that carries current events and breaking stories in real time. This technology has shifted audience expectations and created new pressures on journalists to report more quickly and accurately, particularly in times of crisis or unfolding situations that may be distressing or chaotic.
Many television channels and television news broadcasting organizations provide official live news streams that can be viewed online, typically on their websites and sometimes through streaming media players such as Roku. In addition to enabling audiences to watch live television news, these streams can also be used for remote reporting.
