So CNN is just a ‘publisher’ ?
But for example ABC is a ‘publisher’ AND a ‘broadcaster’ ?

That's one way to look at it. FCC jurisdiction is limited, and CNN is not in FCC jurisdiction. Not because CNN is special, but because CNN doesn't use regulated radio frequency spectrum in the open air to broadcast its programming.
