2. I'm e-mailing the majors on how thankful I was for C-SPAN and
PBS, and how awful they were.

10. It's so nice to watch C-Span
and not have to be bombarded with inane analysis from "pundits" who don't know what they're talking about, who are constantly looking for any slip up, analyzing every stupid gesture and body language, counting the number of times certain words are used, interviewing the 1 or 2 people on the convention floor that still haven't gotten over the primary etc....

Thank God for C-Span.

15. Absolutely. I just sent a thank you email to c-span. I would have sent
one to pbs, but when I flipped to it, there were asshat commentators.

16. Thank you CSPAN for allowing Americans to think for themselves

We don't need Chris Mathews to think for us.

We don't need Pat or Joe or Mika in the morning to think for us.

We have a brain and we don't need Gregory or Wolf or Lou or Larry or Brian Williams to think for us.

WE. CAN. THINK. FOR. OURSELVES ---- YES.WE.CAN!

23. I did a search to see if there was any news but found nothing.
You can write to c-span and ask. It might be your cable provider.
