"Special Counsel Jack Smith's Opposition to Televising Trump Trial Raises Concerns"

The office of special counsel Jack Smith has urged the D.C. district court to reject a request to televise the trial of Donald Trump, set for March 4, 2024. NBCUniversal Media and other outlets argued that broadcasting the trial could enhance public trust, but the special counsel argued that current policies prohibit such broadcasting and that the decision should be left to legislators and rulemakers. Trump's lawyer had previously advocated for cameras during the trial.
