In order from most restrictive to least...
.C-SPAN's own programming (Washington Journal, BookTV) is ©.
.C-SPAN's coverage of official gov't proceedings (commitee hearings,
commissions, etc.) is made with their camera and cameramen; they license
this CC-NC.
.C-SPAN's rebroadcast of public domain (by virtue of it being a Work of
the US Gov't) House and Senate floor proceedings remains Public Domain.
We have many thousands of hours of this stuff searchable at metavid.org
and uploaded at broadcast resolution to archive.org.
Peace,
Aphid

One thing I'm not so happy about with this is that all of the
video that
Carl Malamud posts is now indicated that it is CC:BY. It is
plainly not.
The video that Carl posts (under the username PublicResource.Org) is
public domain material from the US Government that is simply digitized
(thus no new copyrightable aspects, thus not able to be CC
licensed as CC
licenses depend on copyright to work).
I just asked Carl this very question on Twitter, we'll see if he
responds.
