I\u2019ll walk through both how to turn off the built-in \u201clisten\u201d button and how to navigate the article content itself using screen reader or keyboard commands.\n\n---\n\n## 1. Disable NYTimes\u2019 Automated Voice Reader\n\nNYTimes articles sometimes have their own \u201cPlay\u201d button that reads the article aloud using an automated voice. If that\u2019s active and you want to read the text yourself:\n\n- Locate and open the article in your browser.\n- Find the **\u201cPlay\u201d** button at the top of the article near the headline. Select it to toggle it off. That stops the NYT\u2019s auto-voice reader. ([nytimes.zendesk.com](https://nytimes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/24318293692180-Articles-Read-by-an-Automated-Voice?utm_source=openai))  \n- If there is a control bar or three dots for audio control (often in the corner of the audio interface), enter that menu and select **\u201cDismiss Audio\u201d** or a similar option. ([nytimes.zendesk.com](https://nytimes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/24318293692180-Articles-Read-by-an-Automated-Voice?utm_source=openai))  \n\nDoing this should allow JAWS to focus on the page\u2019s HTML content rather than the NYT\u2019s audio overlay.\n\n---\n\n## 2. Use JAWS Keyboard Navigation to Reach the Article Text\n\nOnce the NYT\u2019s audio reader is turned off, you can navigate the article text using JAWS and browser keystrokes. Here are commands that are useful:\n\n- **Go to top of page:**  \n  Press `Ctrl + Home` to move the focus to the very top of the page. This ensures you start reading from the beginning. ([liptrot.org](https://liptrot.org/guides/jaws/basic-navigation/?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Start reading from current position to the end:**  \n  Press `JAWS-key + Down Arrow` (\u201cSay All\u201d). Depending on your layout, the JAWS key might be **Insert** (desktop) or **Caps Lock** (laptop). ([srt.csb-cde.ca.gov](https://srt.csb-cde.ca.gov/jaws/jaws-keyboard.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Move by line:**  \n  `Down Arrow` to move one line forward.  \n  `Up Arrow` to move one line back. ([webaim.org](https://webaim.org/articles/jaws/?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Read the current line:**  \n  `JAWS-key + Up Arrow` reads the current line of text without moving down. ([srt.csb-cde.ca.gov](https://srt.csb-cde.ca.gov/jaws/jaws-keyboard.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Read by sentence:**  \n  Use `JAWS-key + N` (or sometimes other supported modifiers depending on layout) to move to next sentence. ([srt.csb-cde.ca.gov](https://srt.csb-cde.ca.gov/jaws/jaws-keyboard.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **List headings:**  \n  Press `JAWS-key + F6` to bring up a list of all headings. From there, you can jump directly to the article\u2019s headline or to sections by heading. ([sites.psu.edu](https://sites.psu.edu/a11ydev/screenreaders/jawscommands/?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Scrolling or navigating with landmarks:**  \n  Use `Tab` / `Shift + Tab` to move through interactive items.  \n  Use `H` / `Shift + H` to jump between headings.  \n  Use `R` to locate landmarks (like the main content section) if available. ([sites.psu.edu](https://sites.psu.edu/a11ydev/screenreaders/jawscommands/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## 3. If NYTimes Website Structure Is Blocking\n\nSometimes parts of a page are behind design elements or in collapsible sections that are skipped or poorly tagged:\n\n- Use the **Headings list** (`JAWS-key + F6`) to find \u201carticle\u201d or \u201cmain content.\u201d\n- Use `Landmarks list` (`JAWS-key + R` or similar) to jump to regions labeled \u201cmain content,\u201d \u201carticle body,\u201d etc. This depends on the site being properly tagged. ([sites.psu.edu](https://sites.psu.edu/a11ydev/screenreaders/jawscommands/?utm_source=openai))  \n- If you land in a sidebar, navigation menu, or the NYT \u201cListen\u201d widget, simply move to the next heading or landmark.\n\n---\n\n## 4. Adjust JAWS Settings for Better Readability\n\nYou can also tune JAWS verbosity and layout so navigating text is easier:\n\n- **Choose your keyboard layout**:  \n  JAWS can be set to \u201cdesktop\u201d layout (uses numeric keypad) or \u201claptop\u201d layout (uses Caps Lock as the modifier). This affects which key acts as the JAWS key. ([vispero.com](https://vispero.com/resources/short-note-on-jaws-keyboard-layouts/?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Text Viewer**:  \n  JAWS has an internal \u201cText Viewer\u201d (sometimes \u201cBraille and Text Viewer\u201d) that opens a window showing the actual text it\u2019s reading. You can use this visually or to review lines/text. ([accessibility.huit.harvard.edu](https://accessibility.huit.harvard.edu/jaws?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Adjust verbosity and what is announced** (headings, links, etc.) so you\u2019re not overwhelmed by navigational details. Use the verbosity settings menu to choose low, medium, or high levels. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_reader?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can give you specific commands tailored for your browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox) or show you how to turn off the \u201cListen\u201d button depending on what NYTimes page you\u2019re on. Do you want those browser-specific steps?"

I looked into the NYTimes official documentation, and here\u2019s what I found, plus some additional tips \u2014 including whether there\u2019s a way to disable that \u201cListen\u201d button globally.\n\n---\n\n## \ud83c\udfaf What NYTimes Officially Says\n\nAccording to NYTimes Help Center:\n\n- If you\u2019ve clicked the Play (Listen) button at the top of an article in a web browser, there\u2019s a **control button** at the **bottom right corner** of the screen that appears when audio is playing. ([nytimes.zendesk.com](https://nytimes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/24318293692180-Articles-Read-by-an-Automated-Voice?utm_source=openai))  \n- Within that control widget, there is a **three-dots (\u201c\u22ef\u201d) menu** in the top right corner of that widget. Selecting that opens options including **\u201cDismiss Audio\u201d**. Choosing **\u201cDismiss Audio\u201d** stops the audio and removes the Play button overlay. ([nytimes.zendesk.com](https://nytimes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/24318293692180-Articles-Read-by-an-Automated-Voice?utm_source=openai))  \n\nSo the sequence is:  \n1. Play \u2192 audio starts  \n2. Find control panel in bottom right of screen  \n3. In that panel, find the \u201cthree dots\u201d menu  \n4. Choose \u201cDismiss Audio\u201d  \n\nThat\u2019s the only documented method to turn off audio for that article.\n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udd0d Exactly What The Buttons Say (For Screen Reader)\n\nTo help with locating them:\n\n- The **Play** button is labelled something like **\u201cListen Using Automated Voice\u201d** and is at the top of the article page, right above or near the headline. ([nytimes.zendesk.com](https://nytimes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/24318293692180-Articles-Read-by-an-Automated-Voice?utm_source=openai))  \n- When audio is playing, the control panel dialog that appears has a title like **\u201cAudio controls\u201d** or simply **\u201cListen\u201d widget**; the button to dismiss is under a menu labelled **\u201cMore options\u201d** or **\u201cThree dots\u201d** depending on screen size. Then the menu item is called **\u201cDismiss Audio.\u201d** ([nytimes.zendesk.com](https://nytimes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/24318293692180-Articles-Read-by-an-Automated-Voice?utm_source=openai))  \n\nSo, using JAWS or any screen reader, you\u2019d want to:\n\n- Tab until you hear something like \u201cListen Using Automated Voice \u2014 button\u201d\n- Press Enter to start listening\n- Tab (or use a landmark or region) until you reach something like \u201cAudio control panel\u201d or \u201cListen widget, controls\u201d\n- Tab to \u201cMore options\u201d or \u201cMenu \u2014 three dots\u201d\n- Enter on \u201cDismiss Audio\u201d  \n\nJAWS should read these out as you move through the options.\n\n---\n\n## \u2753 Is There a Way To Turn It Off Globally?\n\nI checked: there\u2019s *no official setting* listed in NYTimes Help Center that allows you to disable the automated voice listener permanently or globally for all articles. ([nytimes.zendesk.com](https://nytimes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/24318293692180-Articles-Read-by-an-Automated-Voice?utm_source=openai))  \n\nEvery article that has the feature will show the Play button unless dismissed on that specific article.\n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udee0 Tips to Make This Easier\n\nHere are strategies to find and dismiss it more easily with JAWS:\n\n- Use **Headings List (JAWS + F6)**: Look for headings like \u201cListen using automated voice\u201d or \u201cAssistive voice listener.\u201d Jumping directly eliminates many steps.  \n- Use **Landmarks List or Regions**: If NYTimes tags its \u201cMain Content\u201d area or the \u201cAudio control region,\u201d use `JAWS-key + R` to bring up regions/landmarks.  \n- Use **Quick Nav**: Many screen readers can jump through controls/buttons using keys like `B` for buttons or `Ctrl + B`, depending on layout. Listen for \u201cMore options\u201d or \u201cMenu.\u201d  \n- Use **Find (Ctrl + F)**: sometimes searching for \u201cDismiss Audio\u201d can pull you directly.  \n- Clear browser cookies or use a fresh session: occasionally, site behavior lingers \u2014 though this won\u2019t disable the Listen feature globally, it might reset which controls are shown where.  \n\n---\n\nIf you tell me what browser you are using (for example, Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari) and whether you are using a desktop or mobile device, I can give you **exact keystrokes** for dismissing the audio widget in your setup. Want me to do that?"
