Additionally, the term is used in a more generic form in the United States, [[Canada]], [[Mexico]] and other countries in the [[Western Hemisphere]] as a [[Placeholder name|placeholder term]] within published national program guide listings in publications such as the post-2006 format ''[[TV Guide]]'' or ''[[USA Today]]'' which only carry the default schedules of national networks, where the "local programming" designation replaces detailed listings for a local station that would be impossible to print in a national publication. Outside of local newscasts and some rare non-news programming however, the term merely describes time periods under a local station's control, where [[broadcast syndication|syndicated]] content airs rather than true local programming. For equivalent [[electronic program guide]] listings for [[set-top box]]es, the term is used mainly with PEG stations which do not have a schedule compiled by a cable operator as a default placeholder; other instances are with only broadcast stations who outright refuse or do not release their program listings due to lack of staff, though as advertisers usually demand a minimum schedule to place their ads on a television station, the vast majority of broadcast stations do provide program listings.
