DeafDigest Mid-Week edition, July 8, 2015 morning
-- a nation that has no deaf kindergartens
Many nations have special kindergartens for deaf
infants. One such country has no such
kindergarten for these deaf infants. It is
North Korea. This nation bad for the deaf?
Don't know - but it has schools for the deaf
and has sent a deaf soccer team to play
against Australia's national deaf team.
-- a huge corporation keeps a promise with the deaf
Apple made an important promise last year - that
its famous iTunes will all have captions. To
carry out that promise, Apple is removing all
iTunes from its files that are not captioned.
Good or Bad? Well, it means that if a full
length movies has a non-captioned iTunes,
that movie will be removed. Does not matter
if just a tiny part of the movie was not
captioned. Just like burning down a big
barn just to get rid of one small rat!
