company or channel that broadcasts
A TV, radio, or online company or channel that sends out shows for many people to watch or listen to.
Vzorec užití:
a broadcaster airs [a program/event]
Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse "broadcaster", "channel", and "station". A "broadcaster" is the organization or company, a "channel" is one specific service from that company (for example, a TV channel), and a "station" is usually one physical radio or TV outlet. In writing, learners sometimes say *"broadcast company"* when native speakers more often say *"broadcaster"* or *"broadcasting company"*.
Synonyma
network (Common in American English for a large TV or radio company; slightly broader and does not always emphasize the act of broadcasting itself.)
|
channel (Focuses more on the specific frequency or station, while "broadcaster" highlights the organization behind it.)
Antonyma
narrowcaster (A more technical term for a service that targets a very small or specialized audience, unlike a broadcaster that reaches a general mass audience.)
