To improve the accuracy in distortion correction of received teletext signals.

In the equalization processing apparatus 100, a first equalizer 130 equalizes CRI signals and FRC signals included in the teletext signals, and a second equalizer 140 equalizes text data signals included in the teletext signals. The first equalizer 130 operates at a sampling rate higher than a sampling rate corresponding to the symbol rate of the teletext signals, and the second equalizer 140 operates at the sampling rate corresponding to the symbol rate of the teletext signals.
