Cameras

This week, the Michigan Law Review published a symposium on televising the U.S. Supreme Court. (For those who care a little, but not a lot, Ben Winograd has summarized the seven-essay, 27-page symposium on SCOTUSBlog.) Currently, nobody’s allowed to film, videotape, or televise the Court Chamber, where oral arguments are heard. Ever. Period. Here in Soviet Canuckistan, the Supreme Court of Canada has been letting cameras in its courtroom since 1981. I and many others watch the SCC all the time on CPAC. And the sky, though very beautiful here, is not falling.
