FCC Closed Captioning Statement

The Federal Communications Commission requires closed captioning for the hearing impaired in virtually all new video programming for English-language programming. The FCC rules, however, temporarily exempt from this requirement programming supplied by a new video programming network during "the first four years after it begins operation." 47 C.F.R. Section 79.1(d)(9).

The Bounce TV Network launched its new English-language service on September 26, 2011. Consequently, programming broadcast by the Bounce TV Network will be exempt from the FCC's closed captioning requirements until September 26, 2015.
