Moving Forward

Diversity is a creative opportunity for the American media to reflect the totality of the U.S. viewing audience. While great strides have been made to increase the presence of people of different genders, races, and sexual orientations in television programming – there still lags an area where much improvement is needed. Today’s national media outputs fail to appropriately include people with disabilities. As a young male with a hearing impairment, I find this very disappointing.

With-TV will change the journalistic climate. By displaying credible and honest faces of people with disabilities to the American viewing audience on its cable network, With-TV will demonstrate the intelligence, talent, and skill many people with disabilities have. With-TV will help show that people with special needs can succeed and make positive contributions to our society.
