CNN Sued Over Captioning

CNN.com is being sued in Oakland, California for not provided closed captions for videos posted on the Internet like it does for the TV audience. A group called Disability Rights Advocates is representing the Greater Los Angeles Agency on Deafness (or GLAD) and three individual plaintiffs. The lawsuit claims violations of California's Unruh Civil Rights Act and Disabled Persons Act.
