The Casper Star-Tribune www.trib.com provides all of their stories in
braille as well as text. OK it's a shameless self promotion I wrote
the software that does it.

At the bottom of this e-mail is a link it to The Tennessean, and I
think it is the best newspaper site for screen reader use. The first
page is a page of links, like local news, from those links you go to
the story links page, each one of which takes you to the story;
just the story and nothing extra. There are no graphics on the story
pages, other than The Tennessean logo.
I think this should be a model for all other news sites. The main
Tennessean site is almost unusable, with 400-700 links, but I found
the screen reader friendly sub-site from a link called wireless. It
is meant to be read by cellphones and pdas, but it is the perfect
site for a screen reader.
I don't imagine that many of you are interested in the Nashville, TN
news, but if we could appeal to other news sites to use this as a
model, putting a link at the top of their main page to the "screen
reader friendly page" then we would all be much better off.
