Focuses on C-SPAN's coverage of the Senate and House of Representatives, and its coverage of Britain's House of Commons. Claim that C-SPAN is the only media outlet that unconsciously gives Americans an uncensored view of what our leaders are up to; Description of Question Time, a session where members of parliament and subjects of the crown alike ask tough questions of their leaders; Observation that BBC live audiences ask far more informed and informative questions than the U.S. press corps was allowed to ask U.S. President George W. Bush in the 2004 election.
