Reception
The movie was a popular success with critics drawing particular attention to a scene of an underground mine being flooded.[5] In March 1912 The Bulletin wrote "cheers for the big black and white item, “Breaking the News.” The yarn is excellently acted and photographed, but the plot is not too conspicuous for common-sense."[6]
