San Francisco - FORA.tv, a video site that specializes in political and cultural content, has raised $4 million in its first round of funding, from Adobe Ventures, William Randolph Hearst III and others, Beet.TV reported.

Sometimes called the "C-SPAN of the Web," San Francisco-based FORA.tv's homepage is currently offering videos featuring Henry Kissinger, Lowell Bergman, Arianna Huffington, Farhad Manjoo and Dan Savage.

Topics range from politics and culture to technology, business and "The World."

The site counts Pfizer and Chevron among its sponsors, which are now allowed to add content to the site themselves.
