I evidently picked the link for hearing impaired!

That's really cool. How can I find that link? I'm deaf myself and would love to check it out.

BTW, let me grab this opportunity and report some good news to everyone. First, let me tell you a little bit of history for those who may not be aware of it. I've been trying to get Fox News to start captioning their news 24/7. Never got an answer and never got any action taken. Even asked some Freepers to email them which of course they did. Aren't Freepers the best?

Okay, now for the good news. Fox News is the ONLY news channel that has captioned their news continuously since Operation Iraqi Freedom began! I have emailed them thanking them and encouraging them to keep the 24/7 captioning up even after the war is over. I've emailed my deaf friends and my family asking them to do the same. Would you Freepers be willing to email them and thank them for captioning their news 24/7 and ask them to keep it going from here on out. If they do so, they would become the first news network to do that. They would most certainly gain deaf viewers if they did this.

I would like to thank those Freepers for their emails to Fox News asking them to start the 24/7 captioning and thank Freepers in advance for emailing them with their thanks. We need to bombard them with emails and let them know we appreciate it.

Here's the email address: viewerservices@foxnews.com

Thanks again, Freepers!!

Hi, do you know if there are any web links for real time news captioning?
