Trump's Georgia Trial: Televised and Livestreamed, Setting Precedent for High-Profile Cases

The trial of former President Donald Trump in Georgia, where he faces a racketeering case, will be televised and live-streamed, providing the general public with an opportunity to watch the proceedings. The ruling by the Fulton County Superior Court judge allows for daily video coverage, potentially turning it into a significant media event. However, the trial date has not been set, and Trump's attorneys could still request a change of venue to federal court, which would render the ruling about televising moot. The decision to allow cameras in Georgia courts reflects the state's commitment to public access, while federal courts have generally resisted TV coverage.
