个人认为这篇颇好笑 XD
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has overturned a lower court's ruling that
a group of Floridians had no cause of action to sue ABC-TV for discrimination
against the handicapped. The original complaint claims that the automated
telephone call-in quiz used to qualify participants for the television game
show "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" does not provide accommodations for
deaf, blind or paralyzed people, thereby violating Title III of the
American's With Disabilities Act by failing to ensure "that no individual
with a disability is denied services or treated differently than anyone
else." Michael Lanham, attorney for the plaintiffs, said they are seeking to
change the audition process to allow the use of a Telecommunications Device
for the Deaf (TDD) line, voice-command telephone devices and the option to
speak with a live operator.
