Etymology
The term 'simulcasting' is derived from the combination of 'simultaneous' and 'broadcasting'. The word 'simultaneous' comes from the Latin 'simultaneus', meaning 'at the same time', which itself is formed from 'simul', meaning 'together'. 'Broadcasting', on the other hand, originally referred to the agricultural practice of scattering seeds widely; it then evolved in the early 20th century to refer to the distribution of radio signals. The blending of these two concepts occurred in the mid-20th century as technology developed, allowing various forms of media to be presented concurrently across different platforms. Simulcasting has become particularly important with the rise of digital media, allowing audiences to access content in a way that accommodates their preferences and when they want to view it.
