Derek?  TV/Radio isn't accessable for DeafBlind people! Or am I Missing
something?

Ian
Know what  you said but  it was still a pointless  suggestion  because
it only  addresses hearing blind.

Anyway  why  bang  the drum about what  companies do, don't do,
when even the  BBC  discriminates against the Deafblind.

How many  radio  programmes  or even TV  offer the Deafblind
a  transcript.
 Why  should  radio *only* be for the  hearing folks?
And  given  TV has subtitles  as well, as  audio  descriptions,
why  should the Deafblind be cut  out of  of access.

Offering the Deafblind a transcript service  is the  answer to this
issue.
But far too  often the Deafblind and just ;eft with  the crumbs,  and do
not get  a fair slice  of the  cake.

Regards,
Derek
