Okay. Nobody needs an antenna anymore. An overly simplified view. But you are welcomed to it.

“Nobody needs an antenna anymore.”

No. Obviously you are right about antenna’s and electromagnetic waves.

The “analogue is dead” statement has to do with the image rather than the means of transmission.

But technically you are correct. If someone is using an antenna, then analogue is not completely dead.

The phrase simply means that audio and video are now presented digitally almost all of the time.

But perhaps your point was merely academic.
