Supreme Court to Allow Cameras!... Pennsylvania Supreme Court that is

No, the media will not be rolling cameras over Justice Souter's dead body into the SCOTUS courtroom. But, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court announced today that they will allow the Pennsylvania Cable Network (PCN) to cover oral arguments beginning September 13, 2011. In a press release, Chief Justice Castille said, "My colleagues and I are pleased to open our courtroom to PCN’s statewide audience so they can see how our court operates and follow arguments in cases affecting every citizen of Pennsylvania."
