Broadcast Networks

Broadcast networks are companies that distribute television and radio content to audiences through over-the-air signals. They create or acquire programming, such as news, dramas, and sports, and transmit it via antennas to viewers' televisions or radios without requiring a cable subscription. Major broadcast networks include ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX in the U.S. These networks reach a wide audience and are accessible to anyone with a compatible receiving device, making them a fundamental part of mass media and a significant source of information and entertainment for the public.
