Definition
Time allocated for broadcasting on radio or television, or the scheduled period when a program airs.
Etymology
Compound of 'air' (from Old English 'ær') and 'time' (from Proto-Germanic 'tīmaz'). Emerged in early 20th century broadcasting industry to describe the valuable commodity of broadcast time.
Kelly Says
Radio stations literally sell airtime by the second, making it one of the first intangible goods to have a precise market price—you can't hold it, but advertisers will pay millions for it.
