If you’ve been keeping up with the protests in Baltimore, you might have seen a press conference with a sign language interpreter. Dennis Malloy discusses why they might not be as helpful as you think on this episode of “Just One More Thing.”
Have you ever seen a sign language interpreter during a press conference? Most of the time they’re standing next to the speaker communicating important points to a group of people. While the intention behind using them seems relatively harmless, Dennis wonders whether including them at all is just a ploy to please the PC crowd.
If you think about it, anyone who is actually deaf would probably already have their closed captioning on their TVs already, so it seems relatively useless to include them on the screen as well.
What do you think? Check out this episode of “Just One More Thing” and chime in on the video in the comments section below!
