C-SPAN Partners with Retailers to Fund Operations Through Book Sales

Washington, D.C. – C-SPAN is leveraging its on-air book features to generate revenue for its operations through a partnership with various retailers. The network’s website, C-SPAN.org, provides viewers with direct links to purchase books showcased on C-SPAN programming.

“When viewers purchase books through the links provided on our website, C-SPAN receives a small percentage of the sale,” explains a statement on the C-SPAN website. “For example, as an Amazon Associate, C-SPAN earns money from your qualifying purchases. However, C-SPAN only receives this revenue if your book purchase is made using the links on this page.”

The revenue generated from these book sales goes into a general fund that supports C-SPAN’s operations, helping to keep the public affairs network running.

C-SPAN emphasized that while they facilitate the connection between viewers and retailers, they are not responsible for order fulfillment, customer service, or any other issues related to the purchase. Customers experiencing problems with their orders are directed to contact the specific bookseller’s website administrator.
