TV companies around the globe have joined together to celebrate “World Television Day,” an event designed to underscore “the significant role that multiplatform TV plays in society.”
Established by the United Nations, the annual occasion highlights television’s importance as a medium for information, communication, and entertainment.
The 28th World Television Day recognizes multiplatform TV as a cornerstone of democracy. According to the organizers, “It informs the public with reliable, trusted sources and promotes media diversity by showcasing a wide array of perspectives—a vital function in an era defined by rising misinformation and fake news.”
