Corpora: Broadcast corpus

[Raman Chandrasekar]

LDC does have transcribed broadcast news. See
http://morph.ldc.upenn.edu/Catalog/by_type.html
<http://morph.ldc.upenn.edu/Catalog/by_type.html>   under the heading
Broadcast text . You'll see the following:

Hi,

my research topic is domain based  adaptation of language model. For my work
I hardly need a text corpus
with topic tags.
Broadcast corpus seems to be appropriate. Where can I get it?  I don't find
it in LDC catalog. I also write 2
e-mails to Primary Source Media to get some information and I got no answer.

Please, help!


Mirjam
