RE: Text on banners

Yes, in practice it is true, but do we need some kind of exemptions like:
"Text on third party advertisements, such as banners, that are not directly
related to the content of the page, do not course a page to lose its
conformance standing"
 What about the checkpoint about flashing for LD  and epilepsy.
Some banner systems the author has no way to preview or know the flash rate
of banners that will be placed on her site.

Perhaps my attitude needs some adjustment but not being able to access ad
banners doesn't strike me a great loss!
I have noticed lately that many TV commercials have gone to just music and
sound effects and you have to read the screen to get the message - somehow
that doesn't bother me much.  The irritating ones are when you part of the
message, the ones that make you want something and then tell you to call the
number on the screen.  It seems to me that in the case of advertisements
failure to make it accessible is the loss of the advertiser much more than
the potential consumer.
