The Outcue: Breaking news and how we report it; Realty Building explosion coverage

In this week's The Outcue, assistant news director Justin Mitchell, anchor Derek Steyer, and chief videographer Pat Connelly discuss covering breaking news in the aftermath of the explosion at the Realty Building from an apparent gas leak.

They discuss how all news stories that everyone is currently working on for that day are paused, and everyone goes into all hands on deck to cover the immediate need to gather news as it happens.

Hear our chief videographer's story of what he heard and saw as he was just down the street when the accident occurred. Also, we hear from Derek Steyer, who was quick on the scene, and his account of the incident.

The Outcue is the term for the last few words of a news story before it's over. We know that the end of what you see on television is often only the beginning of the story.
This is The Outcue.
