CBS News – Yay: Couric-Palin Interview Transcripts

1 10 2008

CBSNewsonline doesn’t caption their videos – but they provide transcripts along with their video.
It seems like a reasonable way to provide accessibility. Thank you CBS!

I receive a request for captioning the videos: I might get to that, but in the meantime:

Palin/Couric

Hi Bill,
That’s great news– I couldn’t access the links though!

Karen Putz, copy and paste the links into your browser. Worked for me.

Bill, what I would love is captioned clips of Tina Fey playing Sarah Palin on SNL!

Thanks a zillion!

Hey, Tayler, if you have a clever way of saving and uploading those videos, I can caption, but my download methods don’t work on NBC videos, screen recordings are bad, and they aggressively pull down the youtube versions.

Here’s the transcript:
