(media) vehicle
Explanation:
The same word can be used in English. I think you would do well to use "media vehicle" for this and "media class" for "medio".

"Class Versus Vehicle
To understand a media vehicle, you need to compare it with the concept media class. A media class is a general category of media, such as television, radio, newspapers, magazines and the Internet. The vehicle is the specific TV or radio station, newspaper or print publication, or online website. [...]
Television vehicles include networks such as ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX. [...]"

Explanation:
It's exactly the same use.

The Media is the Channel selected, the Vehicle is the TV program (or any other specific, if other media than tv) on which you are releasing the spot.
