"Trump's Indictment Sheds Light on NY Courtroom Camera Ban"
Former President Donald Trump's arraignment in Manhattan on Tuesday highlights New York's restrictive laws banning cameras and broadcasts inside the courtroom in most proceedings, a law that dates back to the 1930s. Some state lawmakers are making a renewed push to change the law amid Trump's high-profile appearance. The law is not unlike federal courts that prohibit video coverage of trials, and even the U.S. Supreme Court limits its oral arguments to an audio livestream.
