NBCs

NBCs is an acronym that can refer to several distinct terms. The most common usages are natural-born citizens and the National Broadcasting Company. The exact meaning depends on context, and in some fields other specialized meanings may occur.

In U.S. law, natural-born citizen (NBC) is a person who is a U.S. citizen at birth and does not require naturalization to acquire or retain citizenship. The term is most famously applied in the constitutional requirement that the President be a natural-born citizen. U.S. citizenship at birth can result from birth within the United States (jus soli) or from birth abroad to U.S. citizen parents under applicable laws (jus sanguinis).

The National Broadcasting Company (NBC) is an American media company and network founded in 1926 as a radio network by the Radio Corporation of America (RCA). It became a major television network and part of NBCUniversal, a subsidiary of Comcast. NBC historically operated two national radio networks, NBC Red and NBC Blue; the Blue network was divested in 1943 becoming ABC. Today NBC operates the main broadcast network NBC, as well as cable news (MSNBC), business news (CNBC), and Spanish-language networks; it also owns or distributes several digital and local stations via affiliates.
