It’s not run or funded by the federal government.
https://wikipedia.org/wiki/C-SPAN
Cable-Satellite Public Affairs Network (C-SPAN) is an American cable and satellite television network, created in 1979 by the cable television industry as a nonprofit public service. It televises proceedings of the United States federal government and other public affairs programming. C-SPAN is a private, nonprofit organization funded by its cable and satellite affiliates. It does not have advertisements on any of its television networks or radio stations, nor does it solicit donations or pledges on-air. However their official website has banner advertisements, and streamed videos also have advertisements. The network operates independently; the cable industry and the U.S. Congress have no control over its programming content.
cspan operates with congressional permission and under their rules, using public cameras and employees inside. they do not have to be given access to the chambers or access to any camera footage. nor is there any law that guarantees either to them.
holding closed-door sessions and hearings for what otherwise would have been publicly aired would just be step one.
I interpreted you saying it would be “shut down” because they run it. Now I understand you were saying “shut down” as in “deny access” which would be say to do.
Those are functionally equivalent? The consequences are nearly identical, so what’s the difference?
Yeah, but I was responding to (what I thought was) the claim that the federal government would shut down its channel. I misread it. After further explanation and rereading I now see my error. I thought that’s what I said.
