Broadcast Stories

Broadcast stories created in Inception can contain story text, sound on tape text, productions cues, and MOS devices. Inception does not publish Broadcast stories to any social media accounts. You can use Broadcast stories in a running order as a container to publish multiple social media stories at one time or to display operator cues. If you have an NCS license for your Inception system, you use Broadcast stories to control your news broadcasts.
