commercial broadcasters

Commercial broadcasters are television and radio stations that generate revenue primarily through advertising. They produce and transmit content such as shows, news, and entertainment to attract viewers and listeners. Advertisers pay these broadcasters to promote their products or services during programming, making the audience's attention valuable. Unlike public broadcasters funded by government or donations, commercial broadcasters focus on ratings and advertising sales to sustain their operations, aiming to maximize viewership and revenue. They operate within regulatory frameworks that ensure content standards and fair advertising practices.
