SURPRISE, SURPRISE. A #PAJudge is defying #USSupremeCourt to protect #BillCosby. Is there NO limit to his influence? http://m.buckscountycouriertimes.com/news/columnists/phil-gianficaro/gianficaro-why-can-t-reporters-tweet-from-bill-cosby-hearing/article_8f5e6659-b529-5cc8-8106-c264d618d6ff.html?mode=jqm …

@rdknowles2010 The US Supreme Court has banned reporters from using electronic devices in their Court. https://www.rcfp.org/browse-media-law-resources/digital-journalists-legal-guide/why-cant-i-tweet-courtroom-0 …

@MtnShepherdess, my opinion is that this should be challenged. They work for us. If they want our trust, they should practice transparency.

@rdknowles2010 Judges have to weigh various factors, such as a defendant's right to a fair trial. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/17/courtroom-tweet-ban-judge_n_1432686.html …

@MtnShepherdess, judges are human. They can act immorally AND illegally yet wield great power. Let them make their decisions in public view.

@rdknowles2010 @MtnShepherdess I live here in this area during after Sandusky trial there was talk of banning tweets of public naming (1)

@rdknowles2010 @MtnShepherdess Sandusky victims which caused his victims 2 lose almost everything bc of the high-profile case (2).

@woundedchristn, the accusers of #Sandusky have made millions $$ from Penn State while The Second Mile remains protected.
