C. Lesson Proper
When there are current issues that the news organizations like ABS-
CBN, GMA, and CNN feel the warrant of interrupting their scheduled
programming in television, news flash is aired. The information conveyed in a
newsflash is important enough for viewers to take a quick break. For example,
a typhoon with heavy rain would come to your place, a timely news will
interrupt your favorite television shows like teleserye and movies.

Another genre is weather report, which is a part of an entire news

program that updates and foretells weather conditions on a specific area.
Weather forecasts are made by collecting data about the current state of the
atmosphere at a given place. When you wanted to know the weather for the
next day, you could watch the news program’s weather report to be updated.

Internet-based program also provides the viewers informative shows

that can be accessed through websites using any device such as desktops,
computers, laptops and smart phones. Netflix, iWant TV, and many more
internet-based programs provide shows that are highly dependent on the
internet.

Oftentimes, when there are upcoming movies, there are series of

selected shots that are shown in television or internet. As these movie
trailers attract you because of their exciting, funny, or noteworthy parts of the
film, these are usually short to avoid spoilers.

Finally, a documentary is a genre of viewing that is based on

research. It is usually long bringing us a broader, more deeply engaged and
wider view of the current issues.
