TV viewers hoping to catch all of the House Democrats' sit-in on the House
floor on Wednesday had to find other methods besides Capitol chronicler
CSPAN.
That's because it's the House who controls CSPAN's video and audio feeds,
meaning when the leadership sent the House into recess, they cut off the
feed.
Democrats are staging a "sit-in" on the House floor in protest of GOP
leadership's refusal to allow a vote on a gun control measure following the
Orlando massacre. Around 11:25 a.m., as Rep. John Larsen (D-Conn.) yielded
his time to Democratic Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer, (D-Md.), the house was put
into recess and the feed was cut.
"What we show on CSPAN is the feed from the House. It is the House’s video,
their feed, their audio, their camera angles. It’s the house recording
studios that operates the cameras under the control of house majority
leadership," CSPAN spokesman Howard Mortman said in an interview. Mortman
said they were not given warning that the House would be recessed or the
feed cut off.
AshLee Strong, spokeswoman for Speaker of the House Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.)
said on Twitter that "The House cannot operate without members following
the rules of the institution, so the House has recessed subject to the call
of the chair."
Democrats, CSPAN and other media outlets took to other methods, such as
Periscope to livestream the sit-in.
