AGBAD seems bribed Hillary Clinton not to have closed captioned from her website!!!???? Of course, AGBAD donated a lot of money to support Hillary Clinton for no closed captioned on her own website!

weblog: ASLisRisen

I wish I know it is true. What do you think?

Etoile · 02-12-2008, 12:22 AM

I think it is not true because if you go to here: Project Readon You will find a LOT of captioned Hillary videos, and they say Project Readon and Hillary Clinton's website are partners. Whoever wrote that AGBell is donating money to Hillary's campaign to prevent CC on their website is making things up. It just sounds completely untrue to me...you can see the captioned videos right there on the link I gave you!

Oh and I just looked again. That website you linked to says that there is no CC on Hillary's website, but this isn't true! If you go here - HillaryClinton.com - Video - you can scroll down and see the CC symbol LOTS of times.

this person have reply me to as why he think.

and it look like Hillary have make rush to add CC but it's terrible since it got pop-up windows of CC. Would prefer on the display. Oh well, and Obama's site have show whole CC available while H. Clinton isn't.

I call shenanigans. Even post-lingual non-signing deafies need captioning, let alone AGBell's constituency.

I find it hard to believe that Hillary would support that since she is a strong supporter for disability rights.

Yeah I agree. Like ismi said, even oral deaf people need captions for the web. I don't blame the OP but I think the person who made that video is just trying to scare people away from Hillary.

you're correct, I encourage them not vote Hillary.

Seriously, I did research myself by compare how it look on video with subtitle.

Hillary's have half video support with annoying subtitle on itself own windows

and Obama have nice normal subtitle on bottom like TV, and every video are appear on there which is sw33t.

as concerned as i am with deaf issues, i REALLY don't think that this is something significant enough to base one's vote upon.

it just a point to count how someone show, at least, care.

deafdyke · 02-27-2008, 09:33 AM

Well all that, and there's the fact that AGBad tends to be very conservative and Republican. (like they are the type of people who support English only inititives) Why would they support a (relatively) libral Democrat?

Dixie · 03-06-2008, 10:35 AM

can we say 'smear campaign'?

Yep and

And Poweron: Who cares what type of subtitle that Hillary uses, as long us deafies can be understood.
