NAD, NFL, and FOX Team for a Historic Super Bowl Captioning Experience<\/strong><\/p>\n

The National Association of the Deaf (NAD) and the National Football League
\n(NFL) along with FOX Broadcasting Company, the network airing Super Bowl XLV
\non Sunday, February 6, 2011, are proud to announce that this will be the
\nfirst fully captioned national broadcast of the Super Bowl in history,
\nincluding all national commercials and promotions.<\/p>\n

The NAD applauds the NFL and FOX for their commitment to 100% closed
\ncaptioning of Super Bowl XLV national commercials and network and NFL
\npromotions. This year’s achievement marks an important milestone in the
\nquest to achieve 100% television and Internet accessibility.<\/p>\n

Millions of people tune into the Super Bowl to watch the exciting battle
\nbetween two football conference champions, but also want to see the latest
\ncreative ads that become tomorrow\u2019s topic of conversation. The Super Bowl
\ngame has been captioned for years, but not all the commercials were
\naccessible. With the help of the NFL, the percentage of captioned national
\ncommercials and network promotions in the last two Super Bowls progressively
\nand significantly increased.<\/p>\n

The deaf and hard of hearing community has engaged in an annual ritual of
\ncounting the number of captioned commercials and network promotions during
\nthe Super Bowl. Consumers are invited to join in this celebration by
\ncounting along as we reach our 100% captioning goal. The NAD is interested
\nin learning about any technical issues that affect the pass through of
\ncaptions to consumer’s television sets.<\/p>\n

Captioning is an inexpensive way to ensure that the entire televised Super
\nBowl experience is fully accessible to all. At least 36 million deaf and
\nhard of hearing people in the United States rely on captioning to have the
\nsame experience, and many others such as those watching the game in noisy
\npublic places also benefit from captions.<\/p>\n
