GMA is First Local TV Network to Implement Closed Captioning in Philippine Free TV
Leading broadcast station GMA Network has officially started implementing closed captioning beginning October, becoming the first local TV station in the country to do so.
Offering a more inclusive viewing experience, GMA’s closed captioning enables its viewers to read a full transcription of the dialogue as well as other key elements of the program such as background music, effects, etc. at the bottom part of the screen. This is especially beneficial to viewers who are deaf or who are hard of hearing.
The Network’s move is in compliance with Republic Act No. 10905, which requires “all franchise holders or operators of television programs to broadcast or present their programs with closed caption option…"
An initial test of this service was applied to the film Mission Impossible, which was aired on Kapuso Movie Festival last September 28.
Currently, the Network is fully implementing closed-captioning in all movie blocks shown on GMA-7 and select movies on GMA News TV and will be operational on certain television models.

Veteran actor Chinggoy Alonso passed away last Sunday, October 15. He was 67 years old.
According to his manager, Shirley Kwan, Alonso died at 11:30 p.m. on Sunday at the Chinese General Hospital in Manila due to colon cancer.
Kwan said arrangements are being finalized for the actor's wake at the Garden of the Divine Word in Christ the King in Quezon City.
A distinguished theater actor since the '60s, Alonso was also part of many films and teleseryes. His recent projects include the ABS-CBN shows "Sana Bukas Pa ang Kahapon" and "Wildflower," and the movies "Etiquette for Mistresses" and "The Healing."
A product of the University of the Philippines, Alonso joined the international group of the UP Concert Chorus and appeared in many concerts and musicals here and abroad.
Theater aficionados also remember his portrayals of Captain von Trapp in "The Sound of Music," Don Quixote in "Man of La Mancha," and Professor Higgins in "My Fair Lady."

Trying to Be Cool
As the interview progressed, PH was surprised that YS was responding in English. PH continued with his spontaneous style even though speaking in English was not usual for YS. Then, PH realized that YS was trying very hard to use hifalutin words. While the words sounded impressive, YS was using the words wrongly. Hence, her answers were incomprehensible and were not at all answering the questions properly. Moreover, her grammar errors were disturbing. Being comfortable in English, PH realized that YS was trying to be whom she was not by speaking in English, a language she was obviously not comfortable with.
Ever since YS was discovered, her appeal rested in the way her fans viewed her. Coming from humble beginnings, YS embodied every child’s dream, as she managed to rise above poverty and finally gave her family members a home they deserved. Her hard work in her network is admirable, as she is considered a bankable star even without a loveteam partner. She tried singing, dancing, and acting, and she was successful. Years passed and YS managed to overcome intrigues that crossed her path. However, she needed to sustain her status, as one is only as good as his/her last project.
The basic option to keep fans interested in her was to keep up with the changing times. Hence, the network decided to take a risk by giving YS a challenging role. YS took her role seriously and even off camera, she continued to practice what she has been learning in a present project.
However, today’s celebrities cannot be just contented with appearances in one medium. So, YS ventured into various media channels and her latest project booked her an appearance in the show of PH. YS is not new to being interviewed, but what was off was her attempt at responding in English. During the interview, which was taped, PH thought that YS understood his questions in English. As her answers started to drift away, PH suddenly turned to the camera and asked for the interview to pause for a moment. Nonetheless, a commitment had to be honored, and walking out of an interview out of frustration is not his style. After a few minutes, the interview resumed, but at the back of the mind of PH was the length of airtime that had to be edited out to protect YS from making a fool of herself.
