What is the "news cycle"?

The news cycle refers to the continuous process of producing, publishing, and updating news stories. It begins when an event or issue is first reported and continues as new developments or updates occur, keeping the public informed. News outlets constantly cover and update stories, with some stories gaining more attention while others fade from focus. The news cycle can vary in length, with some stories remaining prominent for days or weeks, while others may only be covered for a short time. The rapid pace of the news cycle is influenced by technological advances, particularly 24-hour news channels and social media.
