In one aspect, an example method involves: a computing device selecting a media program; the computing device accessing first data representing closed-captioning text that corresponds to the media program; accessing second data representing a program schedule of the selected media-program, wherein the program schedule comprises first text; the computing device selecting second text from among the first text; the computing device using the selected second-text to (i) identify a candidate misspelled-term within the closed-captioning text, and (ii) identify a candidate replacement-term for the candidate misspelled-term; and the computing device outputting, via a user interface, a prompt requesting a command to modify the closed-captioning text by replacing the identified candidate misspelled-term with the identified candidate replacement-term.
