[nfbmi-talk] what is wrong with this picture?

[joe harcz Comcast]

Aside from not including information in the most effective format of blind individuals (left out altogether in this) can anyone tell me what is wrong with this picture?

I refer to ADA, Title II, subpart e here and a realunderstanding of the effective communications requirements for people with visual impairments.

Frankly, I am a bit tired of having institutions ignore our needs in these regards even in their public materials.
