American Girl releases 1st doll with hearing loss
kubica, 
What was the title trying to say? I'm trying to read it from a different point but no results.
Deestan, I don’t really understand your question, but hopefully something here will clarify: edition.cnn.com/2019/12/31/business/…/index.html
kubica, I didn't expect a doll to be characterized as having hearing loss, so nothing was adding up.
halcyoncmdr, The doll has a little hearing aid.
BossDj, Short answer is all American Girl dolls come with backstories and related gear. They also publish books with the dolls as the main characters
covert_czar, 
Ah that’s the neat part, rest of them are spy dolls made by nsa
kubica, dolls aren't real
30p87, Note that it is not blind. It can still see you.
tilcica, ^(it can still smell you)
Perfide, Whatever you say, Mr. Tom, a dildo lover.
Catsrules, Also this one comes with hearing aids. So it can still hear you, just not as well as the others.
SayJess, Well it’s nice to know that their new haunted doll cannot hear us. Unless of course we sign, or otherwise use our hands in an exaggerated manner while speaking.
ivanafterall, 
I suspect the doll with hearing loss knows sign language.
SayJess, Shit I need to go apologize to my haunted doll.
NessD, Because you are haunted?
SayJess, WAIT, I’M HAUNTED?

I'm just happy for the red circle, without which I could never have completely understood this meme.
sensible chuckle
idunnololz, 
The red circle is for people who cannot see.
Zerush,

Viking_Hippie, Also, why had that American girl been holding the doll captive?
Lord_ToRA, 
I’m so glad that red circle was there. I would have totally missed the joke.
fox2263, I’m presuming American Girl is a company, and not an UnSub
Viking_Hippie, Nah, just a random young female American who likes improsoning toys 🤷
She has a brother named Sid, evidently…
fox2263, The thumbnail looks like a toy Sids sister would have actually
jray4559, 
Wow, finally, a doll for me!
- no one

That’s mean. HoH children will love the representation. They have very few relatable characters in media.
theangryseal, What actually happened is far far worse.
She was the first American Girl doll who could hear, and they’ve gone and made her deaf.
Poor thing.
affiliate, can someone tell me where in the picture i’m supposed to be looking
ChaoticNeutralCzech, First look at slightly above center and read 2 lines in a centered window 80% of image width. Then aim for 95% down, 95% left and read a line 85% of image width.
Always happy to help the visually impaired appear normal in public!
Holzkohlen, 
Could you add a flashing arrow pointing to where I should look. One for each step that is. Thanks
stebo02, 
top right, thank me later
dlhextall, Are you the first doll from American Girl with eyesight loss?
affiliate, i just might be
RIP_Cheems, 
Old but gold
FauxPseudo, I’m waiting for the first blind one
Omega_Haxors, Of course they can, haven’t you seen Toy Story?
