Wisconsin Eye

WisconsinEye is a non-profit, private public affairs cable network in the state of Wisconsin, USA. The network airs gavel-to-gavel coverage of the Wisconsin Legislature, including floor sessions of the Wisconsin State Assembly and Wisconsin State Senate, plus committee meetings and other programs of state interest such as panels, town halls, and programs about state history. The coverage is available live both on the cable network as well as through the WisconsinEye website.

The channel is being financed by private donors including Wisconsin billionaires Ken and Diane Hendricks, who have contributed more than US$1 million. The channel is partnering with Charter Communications and Time Warner Cable in order to reach over 60 percent of the state's population, and is available on the lifeline tier of both systems for those with a digital cable receiver (Charter channel 995, Time Warner channel 363). The channel began operations in May 2007, and although the network's signal is 480i SDTV, all programming is acquired in 1080i with high-definition television (HD) cameras and equipment and presented in letterbox format, suggesting a simple transition to an HD signal should the opportunity arise.

The channel was removed from Time Warner at the end of the original carriage agreement in early 2009 due to the network wanting payment for carriage, but eventually returned to that provider's systems in late March 2012.
