I know from personal experience that access to culture and to news and other media was important to him and to others in having a good quality of life. Closed captioning. which many of us now take for granted on our television sets. doesnt benefit those with a hearing impairment. however. Captioning improves the quality of life of individuals seeking to read or to speak better. adults who may be functionally Illiterate. immigrants learning English as a second language and children just learning to read. Captioning also helps travelers trying to get emergency information in loud settings such as airports or bus terminals or train stations. I would guess that every American at some time or another relies on the captioning on their television to get some kind of information.
