I see Anons here thinking media being barred from the Maxwell case is a bad thing. C'mon, put on your thinking caps!
👀 EYES ON! 👀
There is live telephone access (u/Lyonessrising posted it on another thread):
Those inside the USA can call the following to access live audio as it's a federal court. That's all they allow for In USA call 844-721-7237 Access code 9991787 Outside USA call 409-207-6951 Same access code 9991787
Do you know what this means? Media does not have some special access to the case and it will be hard for them to spin this the way they did with Kyle.
Every one of us must be listening in, and bombard social media with what we hear. This will be our chance to overwhelm the media spinning machine.
In Q's words:
Many [in media] will collapse under their own weight
Record and stream ?

Notes of Advisory Committee on Rules—1944
While the matter to which the rule refers has not been a problem in the Federal courts as it has been in some State tribunals, the rule was nevertheless included with a view to giving expression to a standard which should govern the conduct of judicial proceedings, Orfield, 22 Texas L.R. 194, 222–3; Robbins, 21 A.B.A.Jour. 301, 304. See, also, Report of the Special Committee on Cooperation between Press, Radio and Bar, as to Publicity Interfering with Fair Trial of Judicial and Quasi-Judicial Proceedings (1937), 62 A.B.A.Rep. 851, 862–865; (1932) 18 A.B.A.Jour. 762; (1926) 12 Id. 488; (1925) 11 Id. 64.
Committee Notes on Rules—2002 Amendment
The language of Rule 53 has been amended as part of the general restyling of the Criminal Rules to make them more easily understood and to make style and terminology consistent throughout the rules. These changes are intended to be stylistic only, except as noted below.
Although the word “radio” has been deleted from the rule, the Committee does not believe that the amendment is a substantive change but rather one that accords with judicial interpretation applying the current rule to other forms of broadcasting and functionally equivalent means. See, e.g., United States v. Hastings, 695 F.2d 1278, 1279, n. 5 (11th Cir. 1983) (television proceedings prohibited); United States v. McVeigh, 931 F. Supp. 753 (D. Colo. 1996) (release of tape recordings of proceedings prohibited). Given modern technology capabilities, the Committee believed that a more generalized reference to “broadcasting” is appropriate.
Also, although the revised rule does not explicitly recognize exceptions within the rules themselves, the restyled rule recognizes that other rules might permit, for example, video teleconferencing, which clearly involves “broadcasting” of the proceedings, even if only for limited purposes.
