ASL for national evening news
Support ASL sign language for evening national news broadcasts!
Why is this important?
Even though the news has captioning available, to be more accessible for the deaf who use sign language, an ASL interpreter could be shown in the bottom corner of the broadcasts. I first saw this (on the tv at the gym) while watching a news broadcast being aired in Puerto Rico. This would provide a more equal access to the news for those with American Sign Language as their primary language!
