TV cameras in court ruin dignity says Royko column
Mike Royko argues that television coverage of the O J Simpson trial degraded court decorum. He cites Don Hewitt and notes 15 000 letters to Judge Ito urging a ban on cameras, predicting that live coverage would turn the trial into show business. The columnist recalls past calls and concludes Hewitt is late to speak up. Royko’s Gazette column runs Saturdays.
