What you're trying to do, it seems, is to categorise the event. The  
accepted way to do this in microformats would be to add the tag  
‘broadcast’.

A parser could then filter events that only have that specific tag.

Tagging specific microformats came up in passing quite recently:

msg05994.html

With some cunning copy, you may already have the word ‘broadcast’ in  
your content already, in which case just hyperlink it to a tagspace  
(http://bbc.co.uk/broadcasts, for example) and add rel=tag.

Regards,

Ben
