live broadcasts
Unrecorded transmitted shows
Live broadcasts are radio or television programs transmitted as they happen, without recording or delay.
The term emphasizes real-time transmission—viewers see events unfold simultaneously with their occurrence: The network switched to live broadcasts from the disaster zone.
News, sports, and special events favor live broadcasts for their immediacy and unpredictability.
