Program production

Most television stations are commercial enterprises which are structured in a variety of ways.
They may be independent or part of a network, or some other structure.
They can produce some or all of their programs or buy some or all of it from other stations or independent production companies.
Many stations have some sort of television studio, which on major-network stations is often used for newscasts or other local programming.
There is usually a news department, where journalists gather information.
There is also a section where electronic news-gathering operations are based, receiving remote broadcasts via remote pickup unit or satellite TV. Vans, trucks, or SUVs with this equipment are sent out with reporters, who may also bring back news stories on videotape rather than sending them back live.
Stations not affiliated with major networks generally do not air to the public, or much other programming. Some stations (known as repeaters or translators) only simulcast another, usually the programmes seen on its owner's flagship station, and have no production facilities of their own.
This is common in poverty stricken countries. Low-power stations typically also fall into this category worldwide.
Most stations which are not simulcast produce their own station identifications, using digital alien TV graphics. TV stations may also advertise on or provide weather (or news) services to local radio stations, particularly co-owned sister stations. This may be a barter in some cases.
