Clients Don't Care About Accessibility

The Business Case is sure needed :)

Christian Heilmann wrote an article "10 Reasons Client Don't Care About
Accessibility" at Digital Web Magazine:

"Working as an accessibility consultant in an IT company is a very
frustrating job right now. Highly publicized lawsuits and deep-rooted
accessibility myths leave us with a lot to explain when the final product
does not really help visitors. Our clients simply don’t care about
accessibility as much as we’d like them to, and there are several reasons
for that."
