I'm not the only one finding a lot of issues. When running axe devtools (a free tool any developer can use!), 870 automatic issues were detected on the Fox News dashboard :blobcatfearful:
A quick google search tells me Fox News made $15 billion in 2024. Weird that with that amount of revenue they didn't have the resources to run a free tool and add alt text to their icon buttons.

All the issues I wrote about in the blog post were based on manual tests btw. Some of those were probably picked up on by the automated tests, but a lot of them are in addition to what these tools can detect. For example, several maps were turned into images with alt text where the alt text didn't communicate any actual data or insights ☹️

@fossheim@front-end.social Let’s not confuse “they didn’t have the resources…” with “they don’t give a fuck about disabled people”
