wildfeed

Definitions

Noun. [B2]

Examples

“Cult TV shows draw⟳ some satellite owners to wildfeeds, sporting events draw⟳ others. Wildfeeds are raw transmissions of TV shows, sporting events or news reports sent via satellite. It’s how American networks send⟳ shows to their affiliate stations and Canadian broadcasters, and how TV news reporters feed⟳ live⟳ reports home.”

“Wildfeeds are on-the-spot news reports that are being sent back to the network, which include⟳ times when the reporter is "off the air" while their hair is being fixed, they practice their lines, or have⟳ candid conversations with the camera crew. You may also find⟳ training videos that are broadcast⟳ to government agencies and schools around the country.”

“For instance, a fan knowing the title of an upcoming episode is less “intense” a spoiler than having read⟳ the wildfeed and knowing exactly what, and how, something will happen⟳ before the episode airs.”
