Broadcast Clips
Broadcast clips are short segments or excerpts from television or radio broadcasts shared and showcased within the platform's interface. These clips typically encapsulate key moments, news segments, interviews, or discussions aired on various broadcast media outlets. Muck Rack users can curate and share these clips.
Access to Broadcast Clips is a paid add-on feature. To add Broadcast to your Muck Rack subscription, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager.
Find Broadcast Clips
The Broadcast Search feature enables you to search for broadcast content, including television and radio. You can search by date range, locations, networks, programs, and more to discover relevant broadcast content and gain insights into media appearances, interviews, or news coverage.
Go to the search bar in the Broadcast tab.
Enter your keywords and select any filters you would like to include, then select the Search button.
Scroll to review and refine your results.
NOTE: Still can't find a clip? It could be because:
The clip was aired in a broadcast market that is not available in Muck Rack
Closed-caption text was incorrectly parsed or omitted a portion of the broadcast segment
There was an outage in the broadcast stream for a market or location
If you’d like help confirming if a clip is available in Muck Rack, contact us and our team will help find the clip or determine if it is not available.

When inside a clip, you can access the Search Surrounding Clips feature to explore related or contextually relevant broadcast clips based on a specific clip you have already found or are viewing.

Clip Availability
By default, broadcast clips that are not saved to your Saved Broadcast Clips will expire according to the information in the chart below:
| In | In | In | In |
Audio | Expires after 30 days | Expires after 30 days | Expires after 30 days | Never expires |
Video | Expires after 30 days | Expires after 30 days | Expires after 30 days | Never expires |
Transcript | Expires after 90 days | Never expires | Never expires | Never expires |
Saving a broadcast clip on your account ensures continued access to a clip's video, audio, and transcript. Clips are saved to the cloud so anyone can view them via the Saved Broadcast Clip's URL.
NOTE: If you add Broadcast clips to your Coverage Report without saving them, the clip retains only the transcript and clip data after 90 days. All other unsaved clips retain the video and audio 30 days from airing and the transcript 90 days from airing.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Saved Broadcast Clips are meant for Internal Use Only. All content is copyrighted by its respective owners.
Broadcast Metrics
National and Local Audience
When you search for Broadcast clips on Muck Rack, each clip will list audience metrics beneath the clip's air date:
The local audience number represents viewers in a specific market area
The national audience number reflects total viewers across the country
NOTE: National audience numbers may vary based on the network, time zone, and air time of the program. A national audience number indicates that the program airs in multiple markets, not that a specific broadcast was aired nationwide.
National and Local Ad Value
When you search for Broadcast clips on Muck Rack, clips will list advertising value equivalency (AVE) metrics beneath the clip's air date. This metric is provided by TVEyes.
Ad value highlights the impact of earned media, where the cost is $0 but the value is still significant. Ad cost refers to the expense of running a 30-second spot in a specific market.
To calculate Broadcast AVE, audience metrics are combined with local broadcast TV pricing data, expressed as Cost Per Point (CPP). The formula for ad cost is:
Ad Cost = CPP * Share Points Earned
To determine ad value, a multiplier—based on customer or industry preferences—is applied, reflecting the perceived impact of the advertisement.
