regional programming

Locally targeted content

Regional programming refers to television or radio content produced for and broadcast to a specific geographic area rather than nationally.

Local news, weather forecasts, and community events are typical examples: The station interrupted regional programming for a national address.

The term also applies to cable or streaming content that varies by location due to licensing agreements or local relevance.
