Sexing Up C-Span: "Free-Roaming Lens-Groping"
We can't really appreciate the subtleties of the argument to include more panning and reaction shots of C-Span's coverage of Congress, which will supposedly let news orgs get a more authentic vision of what's going on down among the seats or on the floor. However, Nancy Pelosi has declined on behalf of the House at least, and we kind of like her pinch-hitter's rebuttal: "Such free-roaming lens-groping would defeat the original purpose of broadcasting House debates." Though perhaps Congress as a whole is trying to shed its formerly pro-groping image.
