DeafDigest Mid-Week edition, June 4, 2015 morning
-- deaf in "The Whispers"
ABC's new SciFi/Paranormal TV program had a deaf character,
as mentioned in last week's DeafDigest. While the program
enjoyed good ratings, the plot was a disappointment
according to a TV critic. The deaf actor (not sure if
real deaf or fake-deaf) did a great job acting,
but the program was not great.
-- a new word for oralists who don't sign
Many oral people use sign langauge and some are
good with it. But many other oralists don't use
signs at all. Some refuse to learn to sign
while others struggle with signs and give up.
There ws a new word for oralists that try
and give up - Signing-Impaired! This
phrase was found on a web site.
