Oh, no!
The Supreme Court blocked the YouTube video coverage of the San Francisco trial about the constitutionality of California’s Proposition 8 and the ban on same-sex marriage.
Lawyers defending Prop. 8 filed an emergency appeal on Saturday citing that their rights to a fair trial could be jeopardized if the trial is broadcast on YouTube.
The Court’s decision has barred “real-time streaming except as it permits streaming to other rooms within the confines of the courtroom in which the trial is to be held.”
The only justice that dissented was Justice Stephen G. Breyer of San Francisco saying, “The papers filed, in my view, do not show a likelihood of irreparable harm.”
What do they think is going to happen?
We’re with Justice Breyer on this one!
