“I want all deaf people and all people with impairments to see me tonight and think that they can be on the show too.”
They literally just used someone’s disability to push the show, and then go and embarrass him like that. Absolutely fucked. #NinjaWarriorAU

The clear issue is they production company did not have clear communication in place for the contestant, & they should have #NinjaWarriorAU

Hearing impaired competitor shows why it’s important to have inclusive initiatives in public spaces. Shame on @Channel9. #NinjaWarriorAU

Worse television moment I’ve seen for some time. Your producers humiliated him. Why not edit the part out where his step-son had 2explain?
