Ref US history, CSPAN runs these series "outside of covering congress and administration", courts,thinktanks,
universities as well as the commercial media.

archived since 1989, their own production

booknotes.org
booknotes.org

in cooperation with, and often copyright problems in terms of archiving (max 2 months)

booktv.org
booktv.org

Some other more focused, independent parts of CSPAN

americanwriters.org
americanpresidents.org

That is, CSPAN is, on purpose and by design and implementation, "the anti-thesis of US commercial media" and because of that, as neutral as can be (and has also been abused, maybe mostly by Newt Gingrich)
