| It is notoriously difficult to define mass communications precisely, but television, of all the media, has the highest number of those characteristics which feature in any reasonable definition. |
In the quote, what does 'in any reasonable definition' mean?
Thanks. |

Pretty much what it says:
'in any reasonable definition' = In any definition of the phrase 'mass communications' which reasonably covers most of the characteristics of the noun.
