Q: is there a CSPAN app for the AppleTV? Seems reasonable for Apple to provide one as an essential civic public service.

    That would be an app provided by C-SPAN, not Apple. Check and see if there is a C-SPAN app in the app store for your iPhone/iPad. You could then use Home Sharing, if the app allows it.

     

    Have a nice day.

    It looks like there's only a C-SPAN radio app for iOS, so there's unlikely to be a video app for ATV. Remember, someone would have to provide the video servers to make such a service work. And C-SPAN is actually a cable TV service, so there's little motivation to offer it on another platform. It's a good idea though, and you could try suggesting it on the C-SPAN website.
