Re: [TV orNotTV] Why a Rita Ora guest shot on original Love Island disappeared from Hulu

Yep - that was a perfect example of the
Google-likes-articles-that-are-over-500-words for search optimisation way
of writing. Tantamount to those "What time is the Super Bowl?" articles
that start by explaining what the NFL is and going from there...

I have no specific comment (it has been eighteen years since I worked as a 
closed-captioner, and even then, I was never really involved with the technical 
side of things)... other to say that this article could have been a 
three-sentence blurb instead.

"An episode of 'Love Island U.K.' featuring a performance by singer Rita Ora 
was pulled from Hulu after being briefly available on Sunday. Although there 
was some speculation that the withdrawal was due to licensing issues, 
representatives for the streamer confirmed that it was due to the episode's 
closed-captioning not working properly. The episode has now returned to the 
service."
