Unprecedented C-SPAN camera coverage of the House Speaker elections captured heated confrontations, including Republican Mike Rogers being physically restrained during a discussion with Matt Gaetz. Because a Speaker had not yet been elected, the usual restrictive broadcast rules were not in effect, allowing C-SPAN directors to use close-ups and reaction shots. Kevin McCarthy was ultimately elected on the 15th ballot after midnight.
