Breaking news source
A news wire is a service that distributes news stories to subscribing media outlets—newspapers, broadcasters, websites.
Wire services like the Associated Press and Reuters employ journalists worldwide, and their reports appear across thousands of publications simultaneously.
The term comes from the telegraph wires that once transmitted such dispatches.
