]]> Comment on “This American Life” Spotlights “Crybaby” ADA Lawsuit Filers by Christen http://whereslulu.com/2010/09/28/this-american-life-spotlights-crybaby-ada-lawsuit-filers/#comment-5268 Christen Wed, 18 Apr 2012 02:10:05 +0000 http://whereslulu.com/?p=2399#comment-5268 There was an article in the New York Times yesterday focusing on lawyers who look for violations first, then find plaintiffs. The writer compared the phenomenon to "ambulance-chasing, with no one actually being injured." The article is here: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/17/nyregion/lawyers-find-obstacles-to-the-disabled-then-find-plaintiffs.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&src=recg I wrote a blog post criticizing the article (one point I didn't explore very well was the one you raised - the fact that civil litigation is really the only enforcement mechanism for the ADA) and also offering advice for other media folks (I'm also a healthcare reporter) covering disabilities issues. The post is here, and I welcome feedback/additional suggestions about covering disability issues: http://messageicare.wordpress.com/2012/04/17/how-to-miss-the-mark-on-covering-disability-issues/ There was an article in the New York Times yesterday focusing on lawyers who look for violations first, then find plaintiffs.
