'Breaking Point' Four Corners in captions on website
19 February 2010
Just letting you know that the ABCs Four Corners has put a captioned version of the documentary "Breaking Point" on their website.If you are interested in watching, then visit the ABC website: http://www.abc.net.au/4corners/special_eds/20100215/disability/
"...Breaking Point is the heart-rending story that tells what it's like to live with a disability, or to care for someone who is disabled, in Australia today..."
It is unusual for the ABC to put a captioned version of a Four Corners documentary online - this was organised after discussion with AFDO (Australian Federation of Disability Organisations) representatives.
It's important that we make it known to the ABC that we are watching when they make their content accessible.
So if you wanted to contact them to let them know how good it is to be able to access a documentary online with captions, feel free to email Peter Cronau from the Four Corners team [pcronau@hotmail.com].
