the description states it comes with headphones, but when I click on the "very good" condition it says no headphones. Does it come with headphones?

Mine did not come with headphones. The cassette player does not have its own built-in speaker. you need wired headphones or earbuds, or an audio cable to plug into a car stereo or home stereo.

Why does the description of this item mention numerous times that it receives tv broadcasts if actually doesn't receive them?

Because back in the day when this Walkman was produced it could indeed tune to audio-only of the old analog TV channels (VHF, 2 - 13). As analog TV was replaced by digital this function no longer works and it only receives noise. FM and AM works. I was not able to get any WB weather band broadcast besides noise.

Can it be listened to without earphones? I want to use it in my car.

Hi and thanks for your interest on my item, and yes this model can be listened without the headphones and in order to uses this on your car you will need an auxiliary cord cable. Thanks again and hope I answered your questions.
