Broadcast law refers to the set of legal regulations governing the transmission of radio and televisão[2] signals. Different countries have their own specific set of laws and regulatory bodies. In the Philippines, the National Telecommunications Commission regulates broadcasting[1], with content regulation under the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board. In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has jurisdiction over broadcasting, including frequency allocation and the enforcement of the fairness doctrine. The United Kingdom’s broadcasting is regulated by Ofcom as per the Broadcasting Act. These laws and regulations ensure fair and balanced coverage, prevent interference, and manage frequency allocation. They have shaped the history and evolution of broadcasting, with significant events like the Radio Act of 1927, the Communications Act of 1934, and the implementation of the Fairness Doctrine in 1949.

2. televisão. A televisão é uma tecnologia que transmite imagens visuais e sonoras. O termo vem do grego antigo e do latim, significando "visão distante". Utilizado pela primeira vez em 1900 por Constantin Perskyi, era conhecido como "telephote" e "televista" nas primeiras propostas. A televisão evoluiu a partir da digitalização mecânica de imagens, tendo o disco de Nipkow, patenteado em 1884, desempenhado um papel crucial. Inicialmente, os sinais de televisão eram transmitidos através de radiodifusão terrestre, mas atualmente incluem o cabo coaxial, a fibra ótica, os sistemas de satélite e a Internet. Os aparelhos de televisão têm circuitos electrónicos internos, incluindo um sintonizador para receber os sinais. Sem um sintonizador, trata-se de um monitor de vídeo. A radiodifusão a cores foi introduzida em meados da década de 1960 e, atualmente, existem televisores inteligentes com ligação à Internet. Atualmente, 79% dos lares em todo o mundo possuem um televisor e os principais fabricantes produzem televisores inteligentes.
