In this week's episode of DC Decoder we offer some tips for C-SPAN junkies who might find watching Congress a bit puzzling at times. Clunky opening ceremonies, endless roll calls, weird-sounding formalities and suspicious audio outages (not C-SPAN's fault). It's all here.
But hey, in a three minute video we can only do so much. To explain it all we'd need Tom Hanks to produce a lengthy mini-series.
DC Decoder, now celebrating its first anniversary, is a video series for Congress.org aiming to explain Washington's mysteries, hosted by Craig Crawford and produced by CQ Roll Call's Andrew Satter.
