HARD!

Inspired by this thread: [Television programming you think nobody watches - Cafe Society - Straight Dope Message Board](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=471339)

I figured I’d start my own thread instead of counting the ways in which I love C-SPAN over there.

I love C-SPAN’s BookTV. In fact, I typically scan through the guide on my cable box on saturdays and DVR any upcoming titles that look interesting. They need a BookTV channel, as it only runs on C-SPAN2 saturdays and sundays.

The C-SPAN morning show, Washington Journal, is very good. I get pretty annoyed at (what I perceive as) biased interviewers, but I’ve never noticed a hint of bias from any of the C-SPAN folk.

Who else would like to join me in running a train on C-SPAN?!
