Explanation:
Yo tampoco sabía que "locutar" era un verbo, pero la Real Academia dice que sí (un regionalismo salvadoreño):

locutar.

1. intr. El Salv. Dicho de un locutor de radio: hablar (‖ proferir palabras).


Me imagino que se lo inventaron a partir de "locutor", por lo que infiero que se refiere a broadcasting
