local channels
Regional broadcast networks
Local channels are television stations that broadcast to a specific geographic area, typically network affiliates (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX) serving a particular city or region.
The term appears most often in discussions of cable and streaming packages: Does this plan include local channels?
These stations carry local news, weather, and sports alongside network programming, distinguishing them from national cable networks.
