-- Associated Press removing Fidel Castro's hearing aid!
Fidel Castro, former ruler of Cuba, wears a hearing aid
that the Cuban government did not want us to know. There
was a picture of him, without his hearing aid. He did not
take off his hearing aid. It was "removed" from the
picture. Many angry people accused Associated Press of
posting these faked Castro pictures. As a result, Associated
Press has thrown out all Castro pictures from its archives!
-- the confusing Japan's Beethoven scandal
Something strange is going on with Mamoru Samuragochi,
who was past known as Japan's Beethoven. Japanese people
loved him for years, thinking he was late deafened but
was able to compose music like the original Beethoven.
We have learned that he copied the music and that he
was never deaf. Only today Samuragochi said that he
was deaf in the past but not today. He continues to
be something fishy.
-- Legend Films customer service rep does not know what CC is!
A deaf person contacted the Legend Films, asking why some of
their films were not captioned. The customer service rep
said she has never heard of closed captions, and that it
is something new to her! This deaf person was asking why
some of the DVD's did not have the CC symbol on the
cases. What is Legend Films? This company converts old
movies for high tech filming.
