unbroadcast
Kept off air
Unbroadcast describes material that has not been transmitted over radio, television, or other broadcast media.
It typically refers to recordings that exist but were never aired: unbroadcast interviews, unbroadcast footage from the documentary.
The term often suggests content that might be rare or previously unavailable to the public.
