Senate Judiciary Committee Clears Bill Authorizing Cameras in Federal Courtrooms

From the National Law Journal: "The Senate Judiciary Committee approved legislation authorizing the chief judges of federal district and appellate courts to permit cameras in courtrooms. The so-called Sunshine in the Courtroom Act would allow photographing, electronic recording, broadcasting or televising of court proceedings except when it would violate the due process rights of any party."
