大象传媒 News low-graphics version (2)
Thank you to everyone for your comments about the closure of the low graphics service.
I appreciate that the does not offer the same full range of content but that is something we will be working on in the coming months.
I referred to a new suite of tools which we hope to make available in the summer. These should allow you to easily select a simplified version of the News site - much like low graphics - whatever we have on the full web version should also be available there too.
Read on and comment at the 大象传媒 Internet Blog.

This picture was taken two months ago Bangkok does not look like this now, for the 大象传媒 to use this image is just wrong. The people of Bangkok had a big clean up day and are trying to get on with their lives, the city has pretty much returned to normal. Implying that Bangkok streets look like a war zone now does nothing to help.
You say 鈥渢he government's response to the red-shirt anti-government protests including two crackdowns which left a total of 90 people dead.鈥 This is not true and is very easy for you to check. 90 people were killed over the course of the uprising which lasted several weeks. Some were killed by the army and some by an armed element within the Red shirts. This sloppy reporting is really detremental to the people of Thailand and I'm shocked it is comming from 大象传媒.

Things have been written about the uprising here that are not true but could have been easily checked for acuracy. I think the 大象传媒 has an obligation to get the facts right please it wont take that much effort. The photgraph you are currently using with stories about Bangkok is grossly missleading. Moderator please pass these commentrs on to your Asian office.

Can we have the news back on one page. Smaller fonts, less blank space, smaller pictures.
Why change it - it was not broken. Have been using this for years. It was always my first click in the morning. Not so sure now -- will probably use Google news now.

Are you not aware that by not providing a full accessible website you have breached the Disability Discrimination Act? Did it not occur to you not to roll out the new design until you'd had incorporated accessibility?
Disabled people pay the licence fee too. Yet you have excluded them when there was no need to.
Shame on you.

Not only am I being driven away from the 大象传媒 TV morning news by the lack of 'real' news content delivered by seemingly disinterested presenters I am now at the point of moving my homepage to another news provider. I see and hear interesting, well delivered world news from other channels which is not mentioned on 大象传媒 1 nor the 大象传媒 24 hour news channel. Why is the 大象传媒 spending large amounts of our money on changing things that don't need changing particularly when the changes aren't an improvement in content or quality. Less expensive to produce day to day will be the response by management? Less first class flights, 5 star hotels, corporate parties, lunches and dinners, team building jaunts, taxi's anywhere and everywhere by all and sundry working at or for the 大象传媒 would be an excellent way of cost cutting may I suggest. Come on 大象传媒. Move into the real world where we all live.
