Obama's town hall was not broadcast live across China on television..

Should it be broadcasted? Since it's past tense.
  

Top answer

I cannot understand how a town hall can be broadcast/broadcasted. Was is the past tense in your "sentence". Both broadcast and broadcasted are correct as past participles.
