I answer:

No, TV stations don't have the time or the equipment to do that. The
CC bug is usually placed when the closed captioning is added to a
recorded show.
One of the reasons the bug is not seen very often nowadays is that
live programs are captioned 'live' and no one adds the CC bug to live
shows. I believe there is no requirement to add a bug, just the
requirement to do the closed captioning itself.
