What is the deal with this....I have been waiting all weekend for them to update their streamming videos so I could watch it tonight. I missed it the other day. Are they going to pretend it never happened!? Oh, thats right, C-Span doesnt believe in "memogate" either!!

1. Read the Fine Print

From their website:

C-SPAN is a private, non-profit public service of the cable television industry. Even though the network’s programming covers the political process, it receives no funding from any government. C-SPAN earns its operating revenues through license fees paid by cable systems that offer the network to their customers.

And don't forget to check out the board: http://www.c-span.org/about/company/index.asp?code=BOARD

I wonder how many of these guys are republicans vs. democrats?

8. Because it might mention c-spans bias when it comes to callers

Why is it that for every democratic caller they take two repug callers :shrug:
