How is it that taped stuff

1. Oh.. wait...

c-span2 has the live going.

Still, the other channel being taped is kinda like MSNBC airing all the lockup crap on the weekends. Utterly infuriating. And stupid.

A question. Is C-span on a tape delay? On the one hand, you wouldn't think they would need it, its congress after all. On the other hand, Dick Cheney was VP for a while there. Would the FCC have fined C-span for the "go fuck yourself" comment, if it had been captured and sent out live?
