"Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made," Otto von Bismarck
Watching hearings of any sort is frustrating and painful. Instead of asking a question, they make statements. I think it would be very productive if statements were banned, and they could only ask questions of 20 words or less. Violators would immediately be tased by the Sgt of Arms.
Thus, I might watch CSpan a few times a year. HOWEVER, they do some very good original programming. One show was on how coverage of Politicians today includes their personal lives, something they never used to report, because, it was felt it had nothing to do with their jobs.
