televised

Aired on screen

Televised means broadcast on television: a televised debate, the first televised presidential address.

The word emphasizes that an event was captured and transmitted for viewing, often implying a wide audience or public significance.

Something televised carries more weight than simply recorded—it suggests the event reached living rooms.
