They wouldn't have cut it if Labour had won a smashing victory. As it is, they have decided o go with something they think no one could complain about (like it couldn't have been shown later in the weekend).

I really don't think that's what's happening here. There was no way Labour was going to win a smashing victory, for one. This result is way more interesting that even a middling Labour loss, and the anti-war people can take pleasure in LD picking up seats in the cities from Labour, so I don't think you can construct a bias explanation. C-SPAN has their schedule and they keep to it. I don't think they expect many Americans to care that much about British elections.
