Wednesday, July 9, 2014 www.lakecityreporter.com 4A ANOTHER VIEW FCC: Cat videos need captions, too

et neutrality is all the rage. Cable and cell- phone companies are universally unpopu- lar, so the unthinking demand that the Ngovernment regulate access. Such regula- tion invites absurd “innovations,” such as the latest Federal Communications Commission proposal to require closed captioning on cat videos. The commission will vote Friday whether to impose old television closed-captioning standards to short video clips available on Internet sites such as YouTube. The agency thinks that without gov- ernment intervention, the hard-of-hearing will miss something when someone posts a video of a toddler toppling over or a mama cat hugging her kittens. Since the FCC has no actual authority over the Internet, the rule — for now — will only apply to commercial broadcasters. When NBC News wants to post a clip online about a fast-breaking story, it will think twice about how important it is. The technical challenges are significant. “Some programmers may not be able to repurpose tele- vised captions,” explains Ann West Bobeck, a senior vice president for the National Association of Broadcasters, in a letter to the FCC, “or may be sig- Saying ‘I do’ to friendship nificantly editing captions for purposes of posting an online version of the captioned clip.” Broadcasters, whose native tongue is argle-bargle, e were young then, “until I see them again.” nevertheless understand that it’s not worth putting with our whole lives In the years after he died, Ginnie their licenses in jeopardy and will not offer material before us, starry-eyed and Gary held onto me and my chil- online.
