[This is from the Silent Talk Conference]
I received a phone call tonight at approximately 6:50 PM from a
friend who is a state employee of Oklahoma informing me that
CNN would be closed captioning their news coverage at 7PM CST
(8 PM EST) tonight.
I hurriedly ran into my living room to switch over to CNN. It
was amazing to see what a SUPERENDOUS job they were doing for
a first time test. I was also informed that WTBS is going to
start captioning their news coverage, however, I did not get
the specifics as to when they would start or whether it would
be on a daily basis at this time.
Perhaps our letters have made a difference. I think it would
be very appropriate if we all wrote letters to both networks
commending them for the outstanding job as well as showing
our appreciation for providing this service to us.
Stay tuned for Film at 11 for further details.
