Other news organizations appeared to take a more forgiving posture when the government began clamping down on access.

Extractions: Click thumbnails for larger view Some weeks before the verdict in the OJ Simpson trial was in, a Harvard law professor, in an editorial published by the Los Angeles Times, lauded the potential educational advantages of a televised trial to the citizenry and concluded that it is "safe to say that the cameras are here to stay." Then in the week following the Simpson trial the judge in the Menendez double murder trial banned television cameras from his courtroom. In truth, the only thing "safe to say" is that the debate continues. Yet, having read and heard from numerous commentators on the subject of cameras in the courtroom, one important aspect of courtroom coverage seems to have been ignored. The crucial question camera professionals need to ask during the infancy of courtroom broadcasting is whether cameras may fairly portray the essence of the trial. When Court TV first hit the airwaves, it covered the date rape trial of William Kennedy Smith. For privacy reasons, when Smith's accuser took the stand, her face was digitally blocked out by what looked like a blue blob. Unfortunately, because her facial expressions were obliterated, no one in the television audience could evaluate the full impact of her testimony. One of the most important jobs a juror has is to assess what "weight" should be given to the evidence. Often this simply means whether or not a witness was exaggerating, had a faulty memory or, in the worst of cases, was telling an outright lie. While the television public may differ from jurors in several aspects, the goals of both are the same in watching a witness: jurors and the public both want to learn the facts of the case.

Extractions: 9 June 2005 Back to screen version Send this link by email Email the author The official response to the plight of 27-year-old Schapelle Corby is a revealing exposure of the debased character of political life in Australia. Corby was found guilty by an Indonesian court on May 27 for attempting to smuggle 4.1 kilograms of marijuana into Bali last year and sentenced to a 20-year jail term. She claims to be the victim of a bungled operation by drug smugglers in Australia who placed the marijuana in her unlocked surfboard bag. While drug smuggling arrests are generally given little publicity within Australia, this case rapidly captured the public imagination. Thousands of tourists, particularly young Australians, visit Bali every year, so for many, Corby, who had no prior criminal record or association with drugs, could have been a sister, daughter or girlfriend. Anxious to capitalise on these legitimate concerns, the Australian media quickly moved to sensationalise her plight and use it to boost newspaper sales, network ratings and advertising revenues.

The Lost Stories: Looking To The Courts For Relief The judge there ruled against allowing tv cameras, but has allowed still cameraaccess. Democracies die behind closed doors, he wrote. http://www.rcfp.org/loststories/looking_to_the_courts.html
Extractions: Back to: Contents page RCFP Home Page Looking to the courts for relief The judicial branch is responsible for its share of "lost stories," as courts have found many ways to limit media access to important information. Most notably, access to immigration hearings has been virtually eliminated since Sept. 11. From hearings for the alleged Washington, D.C.-area snipers to immigration hearings for foreign nationals the government has detained since Sept. 11, reporters trying to inform the public about the justice system are increasingly running into closed doors. A judge denied media requests for access to Malvo's November 2002 hearing, which resulted in his detainment. But another judge refused to close Malvo's preliminary hearing in January. Most recently, a judge banned camera access to the hearing to determine Malvo's court date. As of late October, Muhammad was on trial in Prince William County, Va. The judge there ruled against allowing TV cameras, but has allowed still camera access. While the media tries to cover the war on terrorism, the doors have been shut to immigration hearings for those detained since Sept. 11.

BBC - North West Wales - Yoursay - Topics In my years as a driver I have seen hidden cameras behind signs, camera vans The speed camera has its use, but the limits should be much wider before http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/northwest/yoursay/topics/speed_cams.shtml
Extractions: Richard Eyles, Dursley Greg Hood from Hertford Bernard Woodhall of Atherstone writes: "As a motorcylist of some 37 years I have no problem with speed cameras provided they are genuinely sited at locations where it is proven to have a risk related to excess speed. This is quite obviously not the case for many camera sites. It is time that investment was made for the provision of reactive speed limit signs. That means that the speed limit could alter according to the traffic and road conditions prevailing at any given time. Therefore a 20mph limit could be in force outside a school whilst pupils are coming and going, maybe 30mph for the rest of school hours and if applicable a higher limit at other times. Martin Mason of Horsham Richard Nunn from Dundee feels: "Speed cameras have been used to such excessive degree that they have made themselves such a political issue they should be pruned dramatically. They have their place in situations that warrant constant surveillance to reduce accidents. The police should be given the resources to police the roads correcctly. Every day I see numerous vehicles with defective lights, using mobile phones etc... There are insufficient patrols out there to pick up on the non insured and drink/drug drivers. We regularly see police vehicles with defective lights and police vehicles parking on zig zags. The whole programme of education is required to one and all."
