Unfortunately, right now Internet news is "out" of FCC jursdiction. I think best way at this time to address this issue is via your congressmen/women. I, too, agree with you. It infuriates me big time to see video news clips are not being captioned. Ed Alex,

I will try to include some news on closed captioning. Unfortunately, right now Internet news is “out” of FCC jursdiction. I think best way at this time to address this issue is via your congressmen/women.

I, too, agree with you. It infuriates me big time to see video news clips are not being captioned.

I was searching for information about close caption on the internet that I noticed is not provide for many of the video of news events going on. I wonder if FCC is going to require news on the internet have close captions for the Deaf/Hard of Hearing? I did not realize that this is going to be a communication problem because close caption is provided on television and cable programs, but I am using the internet more and more and would like to have access to what is begin said. Do you have any comments on this? Thank You. Alex Nobleman Ed,
