| 2024-17071 | Closed Captioning of Video Programming | Proposed Rule | The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes to amend its closed captioning rules to relieve video programmers that provide programming exclusively to Public, Educational, and Governmental (PEG) channels that are exempt from the closed captioning requirements from the obligation to register with the Commission and certify captioning compliance. In addition, for programming carried on nonbroadcast networks for distribution by a cable operator or other multichannel video programming distributor (MVPD), the Commission proposes that captioning registration and certification requirements shall not apply to the providers of such programming if the network itself certifies that it is exempt or that all programming comprising the network's linear line-up is either exempt from or compliant with the closed captioning rules. This action is intended to simplify compliance procedures and reduce administrative costs for video programmers, without compromising the quality and availability of closed captioning. | 2024-08-02 | 2024 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/08/02/2024-17071/closed-captioning-of-video-programming | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-08-02/pdf/2024-17071.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes to amend its closed captioning rules to relieve video programmers that provide programming exclusively to Public, Educational, and Governmental (PEG) channels that are exempt from the closed... |
