Why is C-span doing live coverage of the Repub. Convention?
Isn't the House in session?
Cspan is supposed to cover the House and Senate during sessions...

anyone else notice a definite right tilt to Cspan over the past couple years?

6. No the House isn't in session.
And C-Span ALWAYS carries the House when it's in session. C-Span always carries both the dem and repuke conventions and meetings live when the House isn't in session. And no, I haven't noticed a right tilt. I'm not surprised you do, based on your erroneous assumptions.
