…who are addicted to C-SPAN…find it the one truly, if unconsciously, subversive media outlet in these United States because its live coverage of the Senate and the House of Representatives is the only look we are ever allowed at the mouthpieces of our masters up close and is, at times, most reflective of a government more and more remote from us, unaccountable and repressive.”
