mediagenic
Looks good broadcast
Mediagenic describes someone who comes across well in media appearances—on television, in photographs, or in interviews.
The word blends "media" with the "-genic" of photogenic, suggesting a natural appeal that translates through cameras and microphones: a mediagenic candidate who excels in debates.
Politicians and public figures are often judged on whether they're mediagenic enough to connect with audiences.
