**Washington, D.C.** – C-SPAN announced a new initiative to bolster its funding through an affiliate program linked to book sales. The public affairs network will now provide links to books featured on its programs, earning a small commission from qualifying purchases made through these links. This revenue will be used to support C-SPAN’s operations.
C-SPAN emphasizes that viewers can still purchase books directly from the retailers, but utilizing the provided links on C-SPAN.org ensures a portion of the sale contributes to the network’s continued operation. The network clarifies that any customer service issues or concerns related to orders should be directed to the respective booksellers. Additionally, MyC-SPAN account holders can download up to four hours of Congressional hearings and proceedings each month for free.
