Art/Literary - Journalism
Portuguese term or phrase: Espelho do Jornal
This is about TV broadcasting or TV news, here is a definition in Portuguese of what it is, but I cannot find the equivalent technical term in English.

Thanks!

om as matérias editadas, o chefe de redação e os editores executivos montam no computador o espelho do jornal, uma espécie de tabela que mostra quanto tempo cada matéria vai ter e em que ordem cada uma vai aparecer - as mais impactantes costumam vir primeiro. No total, o jornal tem cerca de 35 minutos, já descontados os nove minutos de comerciais.

Explanation:
"espelho" is the technical jargon used in BR-PT for the generic "roteiro"

http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roteiro

*****Não são chamadas de 'roteiro' as peças de dramaturgia destinadas ao teatro, nem o esquema a ser seguido em um noticiário. As primeiras são chamadas simplesmente de "peça" e o segundo recebe, no jargão técnico, o nome de espelho.*****

Doing a quick search in English web sites related to broadcast journalism, I only found the generic term "script" used and no jargon for it.

See one of example of many sites found if you google "news script" :
