Catalan to English translations [PRO]
Marketing - Advertising / Public Relations
Catalan term or phrase: soporte publicitario
This term comes up a lot and I am sometimes unsure of how to translate it. And Kudoz doesn't seem to have a definitive answer yet - so let's give it one!

The definition is: "Subcanal de comunicación a través del cual se difunde el mensaje publicitario. Por ejemplo, en el medio televisión los soportes son cada una de las cadenas que emiten: TV1, TV2, Telecinco, Antena 3 TV, Canal Satélite Digital, Vía Digital, Telemadrid, Canal 9, etc."

My best stab so far is "channel" but that doesn't really work for, say a newspaper or for outdoor advertising panels... indeed, do we even have one word to define this?

Any bright ideas, so we can pin this one down once and for all, please?
Thanks

Example:

En la Comunidad, la televisión constituye un ***soporte publicitario*** muy importante. El indicador clásico utilizado para seguir el desarrollo de la publicidad es el de la evaluación de las inversiones brutas realizadas por los anunciantes.

Advertising tool could be another option:

Soporte publicitario
Vector de información que sirve para la inserción de mensajes publicitarios (diario, revista, cartel, pantalla de cine, televisor, emisora de radio, valla exterior, objeto publicitario, etc.). No debe confundirse con medio, que es la designación de una familia de soportes de la misma naturaleza. Así, la prensa es un medio, mientras un diario determinado es un soporte. E.i.: advertising tool.
