THE CORRECTION
First, a radio or TV company transmits signals by ordinary telephone. Secondly, these signals go to an earth station.Thirdly,the earth station sends the signals to one of the satellites hovering above the earth. Thirdly ,this satellite sends the signals back to other earth stations. Then, the earth stations change the signals and send them by phone to the local broadcasting stations in each country .In the end,broadcasting stations transmit them by phone to the local broadcasting stations in each country.
