NEWS (uncountable) means information or reports about recent events.

You say:

A PIECE OF NEWS

SOME NEWS

Some very common news-related vocabulary is BREAKING NEWS.

Is about information that is being received and transmitted about an event that has just happened or just begun. The anchor often announces it by saying "THIS JUST IN" when the breaking news arrives once the show has already started.

The verb BREAK can be used when referring to something (information) that has been revealed or become known.

It's very common to hear or use the collocation to BREAK THE NEWS. When you break the news to someone, you let them know about recent, usually unpleasant events.

If you describe a piece of news or anything related to that as a BOMBSHELL, it is unexpected and shocking.

Another common word you'll find while watching or listening to the news is SCRUTINY. It means a critical an careful examination of something to get more information about it.

The host of a news programwould you call:

NEWSCASTER

ANCHORMAN/ANCHORWOMAN

BROADCASTER

Another word widely seen and heard in the news world is CORRESPONDENT, which is a person emplyed by a newspaper or a television station to report a particular subject or send reports from a foreign country.. When introducing a correspondent or a reporter who is offsite (not in the studio), the anchor often says "REPORTING FROM"
