    live broadcasts of video without requiring wireless networks.

    Do the writers know what a broadcast is and what wireless means?

      I mean… it’s not a network technically. it’s a broadcast station (though the stations themselves are networks)

        It still requires being in range of a (network of) wireless transmitter(s). I’d have written ‘without mobile networks’ or ‘cellular networks’ or ‘data connection’ or ‘IP networks’ as it’s a broadcast and not a two-way communication.

        Sure, it’s nitpicking and they’re technically correct but it’s also imprecise wording. It’s still wireless transmissions and not magic.
