Tagesschau reports on the current situation.

Tagesschau, Germany’s national broadcaster, is now providing its news broadcasts with sign language interpretation. This aims to make the news accessible to the deaf and hard-of-hearing community.

Tagesschau has launched a new initiative to offer sign language interpretation for its news bulletins and programs. This move is intended to improve accessibility for the hearing-impaired community. The broadcast includes sign language interpretation alongside spoken commentary. This initiative reflects a commitment to inclusivity and equal access to information. Tagesschau’s news content is typically delivered through its main television channel, Das Erste. The broadcaster also released a simplified version of its news content in ‘Einfacher Sprache’ to make it easier to understand for people with lower literacy levels.
