The trial wasn’t televised because NY trial rules don’t allow it.

I didn’t realize that. They (NYS) are almost a complete outlier, then since nearly all other states allow for some level of public telecommunicated viewing/observation.

In looking at the cause it’s interesting why. Here’s the root cause I think. In the “Early Legislation” part of this linked study. Thanks.
