Your 2012 election news is here!<br><br>
<br><br>
We are pleased to inform you about the addition of Election News and
Information to the NFB-NEWSLINE telephone service and Web News on
Demand. Now, NFB-NEWSLINE subscribers can listen to information
from each of the presidential and vice-presidential candidates on their
policies on education, economy and jobs, energy and environment, equal
rights, healthcare, national security, and taxes. The information
on the policies of each of the candidates is taken from their own
official campaign websites and put on NFB-NEWSLINE to provide access for
our subscribers. <br><br>
<br><br>
We have also created a customized newspaper and magazine publication
containing articles, based on a search of the most popular newspapers and
magazines for both the Democratic and Republican candidates
<br><br>
<br><br>
The newspaper search has been done by using the names of the candidates,
and it has been limited to the top fifty newspapers to make it more
manageable. The list containing the top fifty newspapers used in
performing this search is at the bottom of this announcement for your
reference. The list of newspaper articles is divided into two
issues: one containing articles from today’s newspapers, and
another containing articles from yesterday’s newspapers. The
articles are listed in chronological order, so that the most recent
articles are on the top of the list, and those that were published
earlier are toward the bottom of the list. <br><br>
<br><br>
There is also a separate list of searched magazine articles about the two
presidential candidates containing the articles from the most recent
magazine publications. <br><br>
<br><br>
To read election news on the telephone service, press the number 5 key in
the main menu to select the option “to read newspapers in a different
state.” Then press 1 on the keypad to select “2012 Election
News.” Next there will be a list with the following options:
<br><br>
To select the candidate for president, Democrat Barack Obama, press
1. <br><br>
To select the candidate for president, Republican Mitt Romney, press
2. <br><br>
To select the candidate for vice-president, Democrat Joe Biden, press
3. <br><br>
To select the candidate for vice-president, Republican Paul Ryan, press
4. <br><br>
To select the daily newspaper search results for Obama, press 5.
<br><br>
To select the daily newspaper search results for Romney, press 6.
<br><br>
<br><br>
Press the number 9 key to move to the next two items in the list in order
to read the magazine articles. You will see the following two
options: <br><br>
To select the magazine search results for Obama, press 1. <br><br>
To select the magazine search results for Romney, press 2.
<br><br>
<br><br>
Once you make your selection in this menu, you will be taken to the next
menu containing the list of the searched articles, or the sections
containing articles pertaining to different issues, such as healthcare,
homeland security, or education. <br><br>
<br><br>
The searched articles list can be searched even further for specific
phrases. For example, to find all the articles about Colorado in
the list of newspaper articles for president Obama, one may press the
pound key twice to start a new search. Each letter is typed by
pressing two digits: For example, 01 for the letter a, 02 for the letter
b, 26 for the letter z and so on. Press pound (#) once to get
typing help. Once you type your search term, “Colorado,”
NFB-NEWSLINE will bring up all the occurrences of “Colorado” in the list
of articles, and it will list them for you so that you may go through and
read those specific articles. Press the number 3 key to go to the
next article containing your search phrase, and press the number 1 key to
go back to the previous article. <br><br>
<br><br>
A new feature has been introduced to assist you in managing a large
number of articles! You may press the number 1 key to circle back
to the end of the list of articles. This feature is especially
useful when you have a list of 200 articles and you want to go all the
way to the end of the list without having to press the number 3 key
repeatedly. For example, if NFB-NEWSLINE tells you that there are
200 articles in a section and you want to go to article 198, then you
would press the number 1 key three times after hearing the system state
that it was reading article 1. <br><br>
<br><br>
Those who want to do their own search for a topic and see all the
occurrences of an article in all the different publications may do their
own global search by typing their search terms. The global-search
feature can be used by pressing 0 from the main menu, followed by number
4, and then 8, to create a new content search. You may type your
search term by pressing 01 for the letter a, 02 for the letter b, 26 for
the letter z, and so on. The first time you search for a term, it
will be added to your list of terms, so that you don’t have to type it
again in the future. When you are in typing mode, you may press the
pound key once to get typing help. When you are finished typing
your search term, just dial 99 to start your search. <br><br>
<br><br>
Election News is also available on the NFB-NEWSLINE iPhone app. It
can be accessed under the publications option by selecting Publication
Groups and then selecting 2012 Presidential Election. You may also
read election information on Web News on Demand at
<a href="http://www.nfbnewsline.org">www.nfbnewsline.org</a>.
