Public interest must supersede all other considerations! [1]

Not since the case of O.J. Simpson has there been so much interest in a legal proceeding. The case against TFG has both sides hanging on every word, every action, every turn of events. This alone should be enough reason for the judge in this case to allow cameras in the court room. But there is another reason that far out weighs public interest and should also be considered. In the world we live in the words “Fake News” is thrown around like one of a million bullets fired in a war. People do not trust the media anymore and to be honest all one needs to do is look at the case against FOX News to understand why. People are going to want to watch what happens, they are not going to believe pundits, they are not going to believe either side, they are going to need to see and hear for themselves what is happening. Yes, interpretations and impressions may help people to understand what they are seeing and I am sure they will be skewed to one side when reported on by the likes of Tucker Carlson. But when it comes right down to it, every word needs to be heard, every witness needs to be seen. People are going to need to weigh the evidence for themselves and the only way for that to happen is if we can see and hear what is happening in those court rooms. I sincerely hope that TFG looses the battle to prevent cameras in the court room this and every time he has to face the music.
