National Public Radio is broadcasting and webcasting live until at least 3 a.m. ET with all coverage available at NPR.org and on stations nationwide. This is the public radio network's most extensive coverage to date, involving more than 120 reporters and bloggers. The news is accessible to the deaf and hard-of-hearing through the first-ever live captioned radio broadcast -- a project being demonstrated at NPR until 11 p.m. with a test audience at NPR. The captioned broadcast uses HD radio technology developed by NPR, Harris Corporation and Towson University to allow the deaf and hearing impaired to experience NPR’s broadcast via scrolling text on specially-equipped receivers.
