The Equal Time Rule requires that a broadcaster permitting one political candidate access to the airwaves must afford equal opportunities to all other such candidates seeking the same office.
<h3>Who is a broadcaster?</h3>
Broadcasting is the one-to-many model of distributing audio or video material to a dispersed audience using any electronic mass communication media, but usually one that uses radio waves.
AM radio was the first kind of broadcasting, and it gained popularity around 1920 when vacuum tube radio transmitters and receivers proliferated.
Prior to a broadcaster, each form of electrical communication (early radio, telephone, and telegraph) was one-to-one and the message was intended for just one recipient.
The term "broadcasting" originated from the agricultural practice of scattering seeds widely across a field before planting them.
Later, broadcaster came to be used to describe how information was widely disseminated via telegraph or printed materials.
The industrial and economic developments of the Industrial Revolution brought significant social changes. Industrialization resulted in an increase in population and the phenomenon of urbanization, as a growing number of people moved to urban centres in search of employment.
Specialization is a method of production whereby an entity focuses on the production of a limited scope of goods to gain a greater degree of efficiency.
