News bulletin is a range of different story with audio and interviews, the purpose of this is to allow the audience to view the full picture of the story. News bulletin, also acknowledged as breaking news or special report is also a current event that newsreaders are allowed to pause a scheduled programming or current news in order to report its details. For television, on many occasions, news bulletin is used after the news network has already reported on this story. When a story has not been reported on earlier, the graphic and phrase 'Just In' is every so often used as an alternative. It’s also assigned to the most important story of the moment or a story that is being covered live. It could be a story that is purely of wide interest to viewers and has little effect otherwise.

On radio, the procedure of a news bulletin story is slightly the same, though some different considerations are made for the medium. For example, a breaking news theme is essential by default to have a theme song that creates tension for the viewers so that they are aware that there is breaking news, this is to be used only for the purpose of true breaking news or bulletins. For local events non-stop reporting may be forced, or else the station may delay until they have a reporter at the scene and will promise more facts of the event as they become available.

Vox Pop
The meaning of Vox Pop is simply ‘the voice of people’. This is most often achieved by means of stopping people in the street and asking them a question which is recorded in video or audio. With vox pop you have to be quick and firm, the availability of minutes you will have will be at least three minutes to ask the person the question, due to the fact it is being taken on the street; the interviewee may urgently need to be somewhere else so as a journalist you have to make sure there is a minimum of three questions and you have to ensure they are all open questions, this is vital in order for you to
be able to edit the opinions you want to keep and the ones you don’t need.
Wraps

A wrap can also mean a piece that is a summary of news lines or elements in a story.
