    In this phrase, the word "breaking" is onomatopoeic and reflects the action of breaking, with its sharp consonants B, R and K, this gives the overall phrase a sharper more poignant tone, making the viewer/reader feel the crashing interruptive sound and crack of breaking news. When this phrase comes up on a TV screen, the viewer will feel in a state of worry and alertness.
