National broadcasters are public or government-funded media organizations that provide television and radio services to a country's citizens. They aim to inform, educate, and entertain the public while promoting national culture and values. Examples of national broadcasters include the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in the United Kingdom and National Public Radio (NPR) in the United States. These organizations often have a mandate to serve diverse audiences and may offer programming in multiple languages or formats. National broadcasters typically receive funding through a combination of government grants, license fees, and advertising revenue, allowing them to operate independently from commercial interests.
